Mangaluru: As per the water rationing schedule, pumping will be stopped from Monday. Subsequently, the water supply will be suspended for four days.
Water supply was given to most areas in MCC on Sunday. Private tankers had a high demand on Sunday as several wedding ceremonies took place throughout the city.
Water supply once in 12-14 days: Water stored in the Thumbe reservoir can be sufficient only for the next 12 to 14 days. The water problem may be worse if the area does not get rains. Although rainfall occurs in some areas of the Ghats, there is no flow of water in the Netravati River. As the water has reached the ground level, there is also a problem in filtering and pumping.
