I took eference from BWSSB site and engaged Aditya Rain Water Harvesters, 1st main, Uday nagar, Bangalore, to install RWH in my house. His mobile number is '9880660701'. Since the company was referenced by BWSSB website and I engaged him to do the RWH for Rs 20000 with their claimed advanced system of recharging borewell directly. I paid entire amount upon agreeing for 5 year warranty. Within two rains my entire borewell was shut and my submerged motor is gone bad due to this system. Now my entire water flow to my home is gone and I have to spend at least another 50000 to get it right. I blame BWSSB to keep these fraudsters in their recommended list. I made at least 150 calls and multiple emails, SMSs to get help from this guy. anand refused to answer the phone the moment they realized the problem of their system. I want to advertise on this extensively so that I can save others from not going through his system. These folks are bringing disrepute to BWSSB and average citizens are suffering due this cheating. You have to black list these fraudsters and help law abiding citizens to believe in BWSSB reference. I need help and appreciate your help in advance.

They might not be fraudsters but inexperienced. I agree BWSSB should not give licenses to these kind of people. You should file a case in Consumer Forum to claim the loses.
Couple of major points to be taken into account in this kind of RWH system:
1. Water should not be left directly into the bore but care needs to be taken so that water runs on the wall and not directly on pump fitted few hundred feet below.
2. Before leaving water into the well it needs a sleeve for about 50-100ft to make sure bore walls doesn't collapse.

Dear Citizens,
Please go through the profile of rain water harvestors before you assign them the job.
Rain Water Harvesting is a unique process wherein if not done in the right way, may damage your whole set up which includes ground water.
Please ensure that it is done for a cause and not for applause..
Thank You,
