Madikeri; Former CMC member, K G Peter, complained to the DC that the CMC has recently constructed a toilet besides a drinking water well in Kannanda Bane which will pollute the drinking water. In his complaint he alleges, that the distance between the open well and the toilet pit is just 4 feet. He said when he was the CMC member, he opposed the construction of the toilet, but now the officials have constructed it despite, opposition from people. He warned of severe protest if CMC does not close the toilet soon, since septic tank water would join drinking water.
