Mumbai Reservoirs Near Three-Year High Water Levels Amid Monsoon Rainfall
Mumbai's seven reservoirs reached near three-year high water levels, with combined storage around 88%, ensuring adequate supply despite a delayed monsoon onset linked to El Niño. Four lakes—Tulsi, Vihar, Modak Sagar, and Tansa—are at full capacity, while others range between 77% and 90%. Recent rainfall varied across reservoirs, with some experiencing slight declines in water levels but continued overflow in others, maintaining stable water availability for the city.
