In Petlawad, Madhya Pradesh, approximately 40 residents in wards 2, 3, and 12 continue to receive drinking water through aging, nearly 30-year-old iron pipes, despite a recent Rs 20 crore investment in a new water supply system. The new infrastructure faces low pressure and technical issues, leaving some areas reliant on the old pipeline. While officials claim water quality is adequate, many residents opt to purchase RO water, with poorer families dependent on the old system. Authorities have inspected the situation and are working to ensure safe water access.
