Summary:
Indore: Water supply to nearly half a dozen localities was affected on Wednesday due to ongoing shutdown of Narmada first and second phase supply network.Localities like Mahaveer Nagar, Sarwa Suvidha Nagar, Sadar Bazaar, Ambikapuri and Vijay Nagar had to face water shortage as overhead tanks of respective areas could not be filled to their full capacity.“We did not receive enough water. Some localities might not receive adequate supply, but we did not receive any complaint from residents,” said Balram Verma, IMC’s water works department in charge. “Despite spending so much on maintenance of water supply system, IMC has not been able to ensure adequate supply to residents,” he said.Officials with Indore Municipal Corporation (IMC) said that supply to some overhead tanks was inadequate due to low pressure. The water that we could store during supply is not sufficient even for a day. It seems that we have to depend on tankers,” said Vijay Sharma, a resident of Ambikapuri.Manish Vyas, a resident of Sarwa Suvidha Nagar said that they were getting inadequate supply for past three days..
