Water Supply Restrictions and Maintenance Affect Navi Mumbai and Kalyan-Dombivli Areas
Navi Mumbai and Kalyan-Dombivli face water supply challenges due to conservation measures, maintenance work, and environmental factors. CIDCO has imposed a 15% water cut with weekly 24-hour shutdowns and alternate-day supply in some areas from November 2. NMMC plans a 10-hour shutdown on November 3 for pipeline maintenance affecting seven civic zones and CIDCO nodes. Meanwhile, Kalyan-Dombivli's supply is strained by low Ulhas River levels and a proposed 36-hour MIDC shutdown, prompting requests for additional water releases and shorter shutdowns.
