He had obtained a water connection from DJB but was not getting water since inception.<\/p>\n<p>He approached DJB and was told that due to increased demand of water during summer and depletion of water in the existing tubewells, there was general scarcity of water in that area due to which the pressure was low, he claimed.<\/p>\n<p>Thereafter, he moved the forum seeking direction to DJB to increase the water pressure in the area and also sought a compensation of Rs 80,000.<\/p>\n<p>DJB, however, said the complainant never resided at the address given in the complaint and filed the plea with a mala fide intention.
