Mumbai Water Stocks to Exhaust by May as Drought Persists

Mumbai is confronting a critical water shortage as a prolonged drought continues to strain the city's supply system. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has announced that the current water stock is projected to last only until May. This development follows a series of low rainfall months that have depleted reservoirs and reduced groundwater recharge. City officials are urging residents to conserve water and are exploring alternative sources to mitigate the crisis. The BMC has not yet detailed specific measures beyond the warning of impending shortages.
