Guwahati: The Teliamura sub-divisional magistrate sealed four illicit mineral water companies in Teliamura and Kalyanpur on Friday in an effort to increase transparency.
According to reports, five water companies in the Teliamura sub-division were raided a few days ago by a team from the sub-divisional administration.
Five water businesses’ samples were obtained during the inspection, and they were forwarded to the lab for analysis.
Also, the documents of the water companies were searched and examined.
Out of those five water providers, four—Jiwan Aqua in Teliamura, Shantinagar, Himchal Aqua in Netajinagar, Fine Drop in Moharchhara and Life King in Totabari—lacked legal documentation.
Following this, all four water corporations were sealed on Friday by the sub-district administration.
Two DCMs of Teliamura, Bappaditya Roy Bhowmik and Anjan Chowdhury, along with Food Inspector Bhuttu Debbarma and Teliamura police administration were present in the delegation of the sub-divisional administration on Friday.
The owners of the water businesses were informed by the delegation of the subdivisional administration that these water firms would remain closed until the required documentation of the water companies was completed.
