Mumbai lake water cut

Mumbai's lakes hold about 92% of required stock but BMC kept a 10% water cut. What should happen next?

📍 Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

On August 16, 2026 Mumbai's seven lakes held about 92% of capacity, roughly 323 days of supply, with four lakes overflowing. The BMC retained the 10% cut that began on May 15, citing the need to reach a full-year stock by October 1 and possible El Nino effects on rainfall.
