On Tuesday, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) announced that it will withdraw the 10 per cent water cut which has been imposed across Mumbai since July 1 this year,  as the water stocks in lakes have now crossed 80 per cent stock.

The BMC stated that as there was satisfactory rainfall in the lakes area, a 10 per cent water cut in Mumbai has been canceled from Wednesday, August 9, 2023.
