Mumbais water cut and supply gap persist as demand heads for a 57% rise by 2041

Mumbai's water supply is presently unable to meet the increasing demand, which is expected to rise substantially. By 2041, the anticipated deficit could exceed 2,300 million litres daily, posing critical challenges. Current water projects are encountering delays, which hampers timely resource delivery and management. Additionally, a recent monsoon shortfall has complicated the city's water situation even further.
