COIMBATORE: Due to delayed southwest monsoon, there has been no significant improvement in the water level in Siruvani dam, a main source of drinking water for the city.
The water level stood at 15.30 feet on Saturday, compared to 26.18 feet on the same day last year, against the full reservoir level of 49.50 feet. As a result, the city continues to get water only once in 12 days against seven, before the water crisis started.
