Power grid failure hits normal supply of water in various parts of Mumbai

Monday morning power grid failure has affected the normal supply of water in various parts of Mumbai, prompting the civic body to ask citizens to use water judiciously.

 

A rare citywide power outage earlier in the day had a cascading effect on various services, including local



trains, in the financial capital.

 

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) said that the power supply to Bhandup-based water purification plant was affected for a few hours due to which several areas received water at a low pressure.
