Water Cut in Navi Mumbai, Panvel Until Today: Full Details
Residents across Navi Mumbai and Panvel have been facing an extensive water supply cut until today due to scheduled maintenance and major repair works carried out by CIDCO and the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC). The temporary disruption has affected several residential and commercial areas, sparking concern among citizens as daily routines have been impacted.
Reason for the Water Cut
Authorities have stated that the water supply suspension was necessary for:
Pipeline repair and valve replacement
Maintenance work at the Bhokarpada Water Treatment Plant
Upgradation of main water distribution systems to improve future supply reliability
This planned operation was essential to ensure long-term efficiency and water pressure stability across Navi Mumbai, Panvel, and adjoining nodes.
Areas Affected
The following regions have reported total or partial water supply disruption:
Navi Mumbai: Vashi, Nerul, Belapur, Airoli, Ghansoli, Koparkhairane, and Turbhe
Panvel: Old Panvel, New Panvel, Kharghar, Kamothe, Kalamboli, and Taloja
In some areas, low water pressure is expected even after restoration due to gradual rebalancing in pipelines.
Expected Restoration Time
Officials confirmed that water supply will resume by late evening today, after successful completion of testing and line flushing. Residents are advised to store sufficient water and avoid wastage during the transition period.
Impact on Daily Life
The water cut has caused inconvenience for households, restaurants, schools, and offices. Many housing societies relied on tanker water, leading to increased costs.
However, CIDCO assured that this short-term issue will bring long-term benefits, as the new pipeline upgrades will reduce leakages, improve water flow, and strengthen infrastructure resilience.
Tips for Residents
Store clean drinking water in advance
Avoid washing vehicles or using high-water appliances
Report leakage or contamination to NMMC helplines
Monitor official restoration updates before resuming regular use
