Thane Water Cut: Residents To Face Water Shortage On May 21: Civic Body Issues Full List Of Areas

Several areas of the Thane district in Maharashtra are set to experience water supply issues on Wednesday, May 21, due to maintenance work.

According to the Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC), residents in the Thane west region will be particularly impacted by the disruption in water supply. The civic agency has urged the people to make arrangements accordingly to avoid any significant inconvenience during this period.

As many as 11 areas of Thane will experience water cuts for about 12 hours, according to TMC. The disruption will be on account of maintenance work that will be carried out in Pise Udanchan Kendra. The TMC said that they will undertake repair work at a water purification centre and high-pressure substation located in the area.
