GUWAHATI: A glitch at the British-era water treatment plant situated at Satpukhuri has hit the Guwahati Municipal Corporation’s water supply for the last three days. The situation is likely to remain so for the next few days, adding to the water woes of the residents of a vast part of the city.
Households with GMC drinking water connections in different localities such as Uzan Bazar, Kharghuli, Chenikuthi, Silpukhuri, Chandmari, Hedayetpur and Bamunimaidam complained that they had been receiving muddy and yellowish water since May 20 and that it was not even fit for washing clothes and utensils, let alone drinking.
