Residents of Ganga Florentina society in Mohammed Wadi, Pune, celebrated a long-awaited milestone as they received their first water supply from the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) on Wednesday. This event marks the end of nearly a decade of dependence on water tankers, a routine that had become ingrained in the daily lives of the community. The project was inaugurated by Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis last week, but the actual supply commenced only after civic officials conducted necessary pipeline flushing and quality tests. While residents expressed immense relief and joy, noting that they had waited for this moment since moving in, they were advised to refrain from using the water for drinking until it is confirmed as potable. The supply is currently undergoing a trial phase, with expectations that other nearby societies will soon be connected to the network. Residents are hopeful for a consistent supply, aiming for at least three to four hours of water daily.
