Nagpur: Due to incessant rainfall over the past few days, the Kanhan River is flowing at full spate. As a result, the intake well strainers and suction mouths have become submerged under sand, debris, and dunnage.
This situation has significantly constrained the water lifting capacity, leading to reduced raw water being drawn from the river for treatment. Currently, limited manual cleaning of strainers is being carried out to keep the intake wells partially functional.

Accordingly, the Kanhan Water Treatment Plant (WTP) is operating only at partial pumping capacity. Restoration to full capacity will only be possible after the removal of the accumulated sand and debris, once floodwaters recede. This condition is expected to prevail for the next few days.
The NMC-OCW teams are on high alert and fully prepared to undertake desilting and restoration operations immediately after the water levels go down.
