NAGPUR: Over 100 villagers from a non-descript village of Sawangi Magrapur in Chandur Railway municipal council of Amravati district are protesting stoppage of water supply to them.
The villagers alleged that the Gram Panchayat (GP) members have deliberately not laid new water pipeline in ward no. 1 as majority of the population there is from the backward community. The old pipeline is rusted and has many leakages. Earlier, there used to be water once a week, but the supply has been totally stopped for the last one month, they said.
