In Pune, even though dams are holding good amounts of water, many neighbourhoods are experiencing irregular water supply and low pressure. Areas like Kondhwa, Hadapsar, Lohegaon, and those along Nagar Road are particularly affected. People are depending on water tankers in some places because pipelines don’t deliver enough. The Pune Municipal Corporation has acknowledged that old pipelines, uneven distribution and the topography (some areas are at higher elevation) are causing problems. For citizens, this means daily life is disrupted — basic things like cooking, bathing, cleaning become difficult when the flow is unpredictable. With the festive season coming, demand increases, so the pressure (literally and figuratively) is higher. Also, concerns about water quality are rising: some people report foul smells and worry about waterborne diseases. For many, this is both an inconvenience and a health risk. #PuneWaterCrisis #UrbanInfrastructure #WaterSupplyIssues #PublicHealth #CivicChallenges #DailyLifeImpact #WaterManagement #CityUpdates #NewsOne
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in Punjab is facing criticism from both Congress and BJP after the failure of two gates at the Madhopur headworks during recent floods in Amritsar and Gurdaspur. Three junior officials were suspended, but opponents are demanding accountability from higher officials for what they say was mismanagement, especially in the release of large water volumes from the Ranjit Sagar Dam. #PunjabFloods #MadhopurHeadworks #AAPGovernment #FloodMismanagement #RanjitSagarDam #Amritsar #Gurdaspur #PoliticalCriticism #Congress #BJP #AccountabilityDemand #InfrastructureFailure #WaterManagement #PunjabPolitics #News #newsone
