Water supply restored to Pashan & Bavdhan; residents demand improved supply
Pune: Water supply resumed in the Pashan and Bavdhan areas on Wednesday, but residents complained of frequent low pressure and erratic supply, demanding administrative action to boost pressure for consistent relief.
The water supply was disrupted in many parts of Pashan, Bavdhan and Baner over the last two days after a leakage developed in a pipeline on Monday evening, affecting water pumping at the overhead tanks. Pashan Road resident Tanmay Vate said though the supply was restored, irregular and low-pressure supply was almost a daily occurrence in the area. "PMC needs to work on low-pressure and inadequate water supply," Vate said.

MC is constructing around 83 overhead tanks across the city to improve water supply, but many of them are yet to be put to use. According to Pashan Road resident Narendra Kumar, the water supply schedules are not being followed diligently, hampering water availability. "This is not helping in the filling of water tanks at the housing societies. Citizens are left with no choice but to call for water tankers," he said.

Officials from PMC's water supply department said the supply would be streamlined fully over the next couple of days. "We have received no major complaints from Pashan and Bavdhan. Our teams are set to visit the locations facing low-pressure supply," an official said.
Bavdhan resident Vikrant Mohite said PMC teams were active only during crisis. "There is no continuous monitoring otherwise. In the merged areas of Bavdhan, many pockets have yet to receive adequate water from PMC. The work of an equitable supply scheme needs to be expedited," he said.
