The water supply to some parts of the city and the eastern suburbs has been disrupted since midnight. While the remain parts of the city and suburbs will face a 30% water cut.
The BMC supplies 3,900 MLD of water to the city, which is purified at the filtration plant at Bhandup complex and Pise. A fire broke out in transformer no. 2 at Pise pumping station in the evening on Monday. So, the electricity in the Pise was immediately disconnected, which resulted in affecting the functioning of all the pumps. The BMC administration has urged citizens to cooperate and utilize water resources judiciously during this period. "The efforts are to repair the water pumps to restore the water supply," said a civic official.
