Several areas in Pune will not receive water today (October 17) following an announcement by the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) regarding disruptions due to repairs and maintenance work at various units, including the main water distribution plant at Parvati.
The water supply from the Bhama Askhed unit to the eastern parts of the city will be affected, including areas such as Wadgaon Sheri, Viman Nagar, parts of Nagar Road, and Chandannagar. Last week's water cut was postponed due to the Navratri and Durga Puja festivities.f
