Last month, several areas across Mumbai saw a 10 per cent water cut for three days as the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) carried out maintenance and upgradation work at the Pise water treatment plant near Bhiwandi. The BMC was installing an electricity meter at the 100 KW power station that powers the plant. The power supply was affected from October 7 to October 9.
