For Mumbai residents, there is extremely important news. From August 24 to 25, Mumbai residents are encouraged to use water responsibly because many areas of Mumbai will not have access to water for a full 24 hours on these particular days.
Officials from BMC state that the Trombay reservoir’s repairs are finished. Water loading in compartment one will start on Thursday at 10 a.m. following the completion of the work. Due to this, from Thursday morning until Friday morning, most of the M East and M West wards won’t have a supply of water.
The Mumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has urged residents to use water wisely and to be aware that many areas of “M East” as well as “M West” will not have access to a water supply.

Residents of the “M East” and “M West” zones should be aware of this because the water supply will be cut off and no water will be supplied in the above-mentioned areas. Residents of this region should begin storing essential water on August 22, the day before. The residents must store at least enough water in a way that it will be enough for 24 hours from the early hours of Thursday until the next Friday morning.
They must also use water in as minimal a quantity as they can to prevent a shortage of water during these hours. The water supply will stay shut off after the reservoir has been repaired for technical concerns.
Additionally, the administration of the Mumbai Municipal Corporation is appealing for cooperation by asking people to use water responsibly while the water supply is switched off.
