Reason for water disruption

HMWSS has said that 900 mm dia valves (BF & NRV) will be installed in the 3000 mm dia MS pumping main at Kondapaka pumping station in Godavari Drinking Water Supply Phase-1, which supplies drinking water to the Hyderabad metropolis.

Therefore, it is requested that people in areas where disruptions occur can use water sparingly.
