Yeolewadi, 27th January 2024: The residents of Pyramid Aashiyana Society in Yeolewadi are confronting a severe water crisis, with the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) allegedly failing to address their ongoing water supply challenges. Exclusively dependent on private water tankers, the residents express their frustration over the persistent issue and the lack of responsiveness from the municipal authorities.
A resident of Pyramid Aashiyana shared their grievances, stating, “Our society receives no water supply whatsoever from the PMC. Even water tankers are not provided by them. Consequently, we are compelled to rely entirely on private water tankers, incurring additional expenses every month. Despite filing complaints with the PMC, no resolution has been forthcoming.”
Another resident emphasized the long-standing situation, saying, “To fulfill our daily water needs, we are forced to procure private tankers. Since the inception, there has been no water supply from the PMC. With no alternative water source available, we end up paying Rs 1,200 to 1,500 per flat monthly for contributions towards private tankers. While we dutifully pay our property taxes, the PMC remains unresponsive to our pleas.”
In response to the mounting grievances, Nitin Khude, PMC’s 24×7 Water Supply Official, assured, “We will promptly visit the site, thoroughly inspect the issue, and take necessary actions to address the water supply concerns faced by the residents.”
