Answer 3

It would be preferable to boil the water before drinking; especially the Borewell water. Cauvery water is better, I presume, although not 100% safe, to be frank.

Answer 4

why not?

Answer 5

huh??

yeah, if she/he wants to.

btw the water for drinking and food is different from the water for laundry and bathing..

Answer 6

well, you can or cannot is left to you. but i am sure it is safe. given that being in US ( a cleaner place comparatively), you may not have very high immunity. I am from US and have traveled to Bangalore many times for business. I usually drink Bottled water when traveling in India, but if i am at a good restaurant, i do drink normal water. But it is ok.. you can drink and still be alive.. there are thousands of people drinking that water.

Answer 7

if your resistance level is high you can go ahead.... but usually people prefer mineral water

Answer 8

Its the best to stick to purified water bottles. Tap water is a strict NO NO.

Answer 9

No, not the tap water

Buy packaged drinking water

Good for you, and the local economy
