Haryana State Government has come up with Water ATM Policy to provide clean drinking water to people at public places. Distance between two water ATMs within a city would be 400 metres, which could be adjusted according to convenience of people. Spots for installation of water ATMs will be identified by the municipalities. Installation would be done mostly at public places such as bus-stands, parks, railway stations, parking areas and markets Post installation, functioning of Water ATMs would be looked after by the municipality itself or by an agency. This responsibility may also be handed over to a company willing to look after it as a part of its Corporate Social Responsibility initiative.
