The Thane Municipal Corporation has announced a revised schedule for its periodic water supply reduction, part of ongoing efforts to manage demand across the sprawling city. The 10 percent cut in water distribution will be implemented on a weekly basis, impacting numerous residential and commercial areas dependent on municipal and STEM water networks.
Residents of Ghodbunder Road, Mumbra, and Kalwa—among the most affected localities—have been advised to plan their water usage accordingly during the scheduled reduction period. The decision comes as water management authorities seek to balance supply constraints with the needs of Thane's growing population.
The TMC and STEM have urged residents to store adequate water for essential needs during the cut period and to avoid unnecessary consumption. Officials have indicated that the revised timing was determined after reviewing supply patterns and local demand across different zones.
Authorities have not specified an exact duration for the weekly cuts, but residents are advised to monitor official TMC communications for updated schedules and any further changes to the water supply programme. The corporation has committed to minimising disruption while implementing the rationing measure.
