With water reserves running low, the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has announced a water cut across several parts of the city, starting Monday, May 5. The decision impacts neighbourhoods under the Vadgaon Water Purification Project Zone, including areas in Dhayari, Suncity, Vadgaon Budruk, Hingane, Sahakarnagar, Dhankawadi, Balajinagar, Ambegaon Plateau, Katraj and Kondhwa.
The PMC's Information and Public Relations Office issued a detailed schedule outlining day-wise suspension of water supply in affected areas. Authorities cited reduced water availability due to delayed summer rains and increased consumption as key reasons behind the move.
Residents are urged to store adequate water in advance and use it sparingly during their scheduled no-supply day.
