Mumbai’s Lakes Almost Full After Heavy Rain; Water Levels Touch 99.46 Per Cent
Mumbai’s drinking water reserves have received a significant boost thanks to steady rainfall in the catchment areas. As per the details posted on X, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) confirmed that the combined stock in the seven lakes supplying the city now stands at 99.46 per cent.
With reservoirs nearing their peak, several lakes have begun releasing water over recent weeks. Upper Vaitarna and Middle Vaitarna started discharging in August, while Modak Sagar and Tansa overflowed earlier in July. Bhatsa, Tulsi and Vihar also reached capacity by mid-August.
For residents, the near-full lakes bring relief and reassurance of a steady water supply in the months ahead.
