Pune Reservoirs Reach Full Capacity, Water Supply Cuts End After Heavy Rainfall
Pune's water reservoirs, including the Khadakwasla dam complex and Bhama Askhed, have reached near or full capacity following heavy monsoon rainfall in July. The Khadakwasla complex, comprising four dams, holds 29.15 TMC of water, higher than last year. Steady inflows continue despite reduced rainfall, and regulated releases maintain safe levels. The Pune Municipal Corporation has ended water supply cuts, citing sufficient reserves for upcoming months. The India Meteorological Department reports significant rainfall in the Western Ghats, contributing to the improved water storage.
