To resolve this, a demand notice of Rs. 68 lakh has been submitted to HESCO for the replacement of power feeders. A budget of Rs. 4 crore 71 lakh has been proposed to complete this project within a month.
Mayor Ghori reassured the public that the generators at the pumping stations are well-equipped with diesel and the motors are functioning properly to ensure continuous water supply.
