Thane: The Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) has announced a 12-hour water cut in the areas of Ghodbunder Road, Vartak Nagar, Ritu Park, Jail, Gandhi Nagar, Rustamji, Siddhanchal, Samata Nagar, Internity, Johnson, and some parts of Kalwa on May 21.
This temporary cut in water supply will be due to repair work being carried out on a water purification center and a high-pressure substation in Pise Udanchan Kendra.
The repair work will start in the early hours of May 21, Wednesday, from 9 AM to 9 PM and is expected to take around 12 hours to complete. During this time, the water supply in all affected areas—Ghodbunder Road, Vartak Nagar, Ritu Park, Jail, Gandhi Nagar, Rustamji, Siddhanchal, Samata Nagar, Internity, Johnson, and some parts of Kalwa—will remain completely shut down.
According to TMC officials, in view of pre-monsoon maintenance, control panel repairs, transformer oil filtration in the high-pressure substation, and the water purification center in Temghar, TMC will conduct these activities. The civic body officials stated that the water supply pressure will be low for the next one to two days after the repair work is done.
The TMC has appealed residents of these areas to store enough water in advance and to cooperate during this repair period.
