The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has announced a comprehensive overhaul of its water supply project, valued at Rs. 3.79 billion. This initiative aims to address the city's growing water needs and enhance the efficiency of its water distribution network.

The revamp project encompasses various aspects, including the modernization of infrastructure, augmentation of water treatment facilities, and the implementation of advanced technologies for better monitoring and management. BMC officials have emphasised the importance of ensuring a reliable and sustainable water supply system to meet the increasing demands of Mumbai's burgeoning population.

Key components of the project include the replacement and refurbishment of ageing pipelines, installation of new pumping stations, and the adoption of measures to minimise water leakages and losses.
