Thane, June 2: The Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) has announced a complete 24-hour water shutdown in several parts of the city from 12:00 pm on Thursday, June 4, 2026, to 12:00 pm on Friday, June 5, 2026.
According to an official release by the TMC's Public Relations Department, the suspension is a pre-emptive measure to mitigate future water scarcity. Climate phenomena, including the El Niño and Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) effects, have altered ocean currents, raising concerns over a delayed monsoon. The decision follows a review meeting with the Water Resources Department on May 14, 2026, aimed at managing the city's water reserves prudently.
The shutdown will affect areas supplied by the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation’s (MIDC) Jambhul water treatment plant.

● All areas under the Diva and Kalwa ward committees.

Also Watch:
Low-pressure supply likely after restoration
