New Delhi: The Delhi Congress on Thursday promised 30 paise cashback for each litre of water saved by Delhi residents and 20,000 litres of water a month free if it is voted to power in the February 8 assembly elections. Claiming that the cashback plan will help the city save 25-30 per cent of drinking water, Delhi Congress president Subhash Chopra alleged that the AAP government's free water scheme "benefited water tanker mafia". "The AAP government gave 20,000 litres of water per month free without any calculations. Water from abandoned, empty houses was going to "tanker mafias", the Congress' city unit president president claimed, adding if his party gets elected it will continue to give 20,000 litres of water free and also encourage people to save water. It amounts to 20,000 litres of water each month," he said..
