Kanhan WTP intake wells(Jackwell side) are chocked and are able to operate only 1 out of normal 3 pumps . River Water is flowing 25 ft above Jack well strainers.
The Kanhan WTP is operational at 70% of normal pumping capacity.
On Saturday dawn at the very 1st oppurtunity as soon as the river water recedes, the divers will be deployed to clean the strainers such that the Raw water pumps can be started.
This will result in Low pressure or No water supply in the areas fed from Kanhan feeder mains. The affected areas for water supply are: Ashi Nagar Zone, Satranji pura Zone, Lakarganj Zone and Nehru Nagar Zone
