The Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation (GVMC) has started a new toll-free helpline number, 1800-4250-0009, to help people in Visakhapatnam with their drinking water problems.

They want to make sure everyone gets clean and safe drinking water without any interruptions.
People are asked to call the helpline if they have any problems with their water supply so that the GVMC can fix them fast.
