A power failure at the Bhandup Water Treatment Complex on Tuesday disrupted the operation of pumps in the B-1 distribution system, leading to reduced water pressure across Mumbai. Civic officials reported that the outage affected the pumping mechanism at the complex, causing a drop in water distribution throughout the day.
Impact on Water Supply
The power outage struck the B-1 distribution system, which is responsible for supplying water to several parts of the city. As a result, residents experienced lower water pressure, and some areas may have faced temporary interruptions. Officials are working to restore normal operations as quickly as possible.
