Water is one important natural resource, it is to humans what fuel is to our cars. Even till this date, there are a number of areas and villages where people struggle for a drinking water. Maruti Suzuki realises this problem and in a way of giving back to the society, has set up a water ATM in Sarhaul village in Haryana. The company has already set-up 26 such ATMs in the country and this is the 12th unit in the state of Haryana. The company has planned to set more 12 units in the coming year, 6 of which will be in the state of Haryana. These ATMs provide water to the people at a very nominal cost of 35 paise a litre.
