The FDA Director General directed the squads for detecting the illegal connections of water supply and sewerage besides ensuring 100PC recovery of arrears from the defaulters of the Wasa. He expressed his displeasure over the slow pace of recovery and directed for accelerating the departmental steps for maximum recovery.
