Residents, particularly women, protested with empty pots over an alleged drinking water shortage in Animal Husbandry Minister Vakiti Srihari’s constituency.
Residents of Nandini Nagar Colony in the fifth ward of Makthal Municipality staged a protest on the Makthal-Karni road here
on Thursday, demanding a regular drinking water supply.
Women squatted on the road with empty pots, alleging that their colony had not received water for several days.
They said repeated complaints to municipal authorities had failed to resolve the shortage.
