On 22 May 2009, I found this truck extracting water, purportedly for horticulture purposes, with permission from PWD officials. This was on 22 May. Caught it in the evening while returning home; called the Police at 100, and Anu ji and Jyoti ji as well, to see if they were free to come down. Anu ji came down, and gave me some much needed moral support – honestly I was a little nervous, as the owners of the truck had reached there from Saket (and I was expecting some nasty exchanges and perhaps worse), even while the Police were lost in tracing Nuclear Science Center and Neela Hauz lake – they eventually called me nearly 45-50 minutes after my first call at 100, from Mehrauli Thana (I think it was Jyoti ji’s call to them to take aciton), asking me *where this place was* 
(I must stop being too critical of Delhi Police; two cops in their private car, recently saved lives of 4 people of my friends’ family caught in a very severe car accident near Behrod).
