It may be mentioned here once again a breach has occurred in Right bank Canal (RBC) at 7 Km from Navegaon-Khairy dam. The gates (to release water into the RBC) at the Navegaon-Khari Dam has been closed and water level in the canal is slowly receding.
The repair work of breach in canal by Irrigation Department is under progress and is expected to be completed soon. Due to this the potable water supply to the city will get adversely affected from Nov. 14 evening till Nov. 16 afternoon , morning as Pench-2 pumping is directly dependent on supply from Mahadula raw water pumping which gets water from RBC.
