Angry residents of Ananta Towers in Ulwe took to the streets with empty pots in a ‘Handa Morcha’ outside the CIDCO office at Sector-19, Bamandongari, on Friday. The protest began at 11 am, with slogans like “CIDCO wale chor hai (CIDCO employees are thieves)” and “Paani do (Give us water)”, highlighting what residents call a year-long crisis.

15,000 affected

The township houses nearly 15,000 residents across 5160 flats in 43 buildings, yet the water supply remains inconsistent. Sandip Mutal, a resident, told mid-day, “We got possession in February 2025 and have been facing water problems every single day.”
