Kolkata Puja pandal installs Water ATM
The Water ATM will work like a bank's ATM. People can get cold or normal water from a vending machine, after depositing money through a particular slot.
Inaugurating the Water ATM here, West Bengal Panchayat and Public Health Engineering Department minister Subrata Mukherjee said, "WB government will install 200 more drinking water ATMs across Kolkata and its suburbs. People would get one pure litre for just two rupees."
"We have plans to launch more water ATMs in the entire state later," he added.
City's first water ATM will be maintained by Ekdalia Evergreen club here.
