15 March,2024 02:57 PM IST | Bengaluru | Sanjana DeshpandeIn Photos: Mumbai's reserved water quota averts severe water crisis for now
In a challenging scenario, Mumbai’s reserved water quota plays a crucial role in ensuring adequate water supply for the city. Without the utilisation of this quota, the lake levels would have plummeted to a mere 7 per cent. Presently, the lake levels stand below 9 per cent. However, with the reserved quota, the water quantity has reached 16 per cent of the total storage capacity of the lakes, potentially sustaining the city until the end of July. The final decision on water cuts will be determined by the progress of the monsoon and lake levels by the end of June. Representative pictures/File photos
