The water supply will remain suspended from 9 am on Tuesday to 9 am on Wednesday. During this period, several areas in the ‘P East’ and ‘P South’ wards will face a water supply disruption.

Mumbai: Water supply will be suspended for 24 hours in several areas of the Goregaon East locality due to repair work on a water pipeline. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has informed that jointing work will be carried out on a 750 mm diameter main water pipeline near the flyover on Dadasaheb Phalke Chitranagari (Film City) Road.

According to the BMC, this work will commence on Tuesday, March 10, at 9 AM and will continue until Wednesday, March 11, at 9 AM. During this 24-hour period, the water supply will be completely shut off in several areas of 'P East' and 'P South' wards, while some parts will experience supply at low pressure.

Special Appeal to Citizens

The BMC administration has appealed to citizens to use water very carefully and in limited quantities during the repair work.

The administration has also stated that the water may appear murky for a few days after the pipeline work. Therefore, citizens have been advised to filter and boil the water before drinking.

Areas to be Affected by Water Cut

P East Ward: Shivshahi Project (regular timing 11:45 PM to 5:45 AM), Shri Krishna Nagar, Indira Gandhi Research Institute Campus (regular timing 3:30 AM to 9 AM).

P South Ward: Satellite Tower, Santosh Nagar, Mali Nagar, Hubale Pada, Umarseth Pada, Nagarmode Pada, Sunil Maidan, and areas adjacent to Film City Road (regular timing 12 AM to 3 AM).

The BMC administration has appealed to citizens to store water in advance for this period and use it judiciously. Additionally, it is anticipated that the water may be turbid for a few days following the repair work. As a precautionary measure, citizens are advised to filter and boil the water before consumption.
