Bengaluru Water Supply Disrupted for Maintenance on Tuesday
On Tuesday, September 16, Bengaluru's water supply will be temporarily cut off due to necessary repairs.
The Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) is working on the Cauvery water system to keep it running smoothly.
This maintenance, which involves shutting down pumping stations, is important to prevent bigger problems.
Residents in Bengaluru, who receive water from the Cauvery River, are asked to store water in advance.
This also helps ensure reliable supply.
The BWSSB Chairman said these repairs are critical for delivering water to the city.
Water supply will be disrupted in Bengaluru on September 16-17.
The disruption is due to maintenance of the Cauvery water system.
Phase 1 and 2 pumping stations will be shut down.
Affected areas include those relying on Cauvery Stages I, II, III, and IV.
