There was an outcry for water in May-June
In the scorching heat of May-June, there was an outcry and protests in many areas of the city after the shortage of water. Water was also increased from the Bisalpur system but due to the delay in rains, the water in the dam decreased and the cut began. When the water started flowing in the dam, the cut was gradually stopped. Now the dam is full to the brim and there will be no shortage of water in the city and thousands of colonies at the end will get water with adequate pressure.
