Mumbai Water Cut: BMC Announces 24-Hour Supply Disruption for Emergency Pipeline Repairs

Mumbai: The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has announced a 24-hour disruption in water supply across parts of the Eastern Suburbs and city areas due to emergency repair work on a major water pipeline at Amar Mahal Junction.

According to BMC officials, a leak has been detected in a 1200 mm diameter pipeline during the ongoing metro construction work in the area. In order to carry out urgent repairs, the adjacent 1800 mm diameter pipeline at Amar Mahal Junction must be shut down temporarily.

The shutdown will affect water supply to several areas, and residents are urged to store adequate water in advance. The BMC has also appealed to citizens to use water sparingly during this period.

A civic body spokesperson stated, “Repair work is being carried out on a war footing, and every effort is being made to complete it as swiftly as possible. Once the repairs are done, the water supply will be restored in a phased manner.”
