We have a sump which has capacity of 13000 litres. there's no metro water supply in my area from few months. We book a tanker for drinking purposes. We go to the nearest metro water office located at vyasarpadi (near ambedkar college) for paying the fee in advance to book a tanker. This time they denied to make a receipt and asked to pay the entire fee to the driver once the tanker arrives. I felt suspicious about it. Tanker arrived within 2 hours. Normally it takes a day or two. I asked the driver how many litres does the lorry has? He said 10000. I recieved the water in my sump. And the level stated very clearly it was not 10000 litres. We had an argument with the driver. Usual Fee for a tanker is 600. Driver asked for 800. We paid him 700 becuase we feared what if next time they mess around with us and stop sending tankers or send us dirty water.
