The water levels in lakes supplying drinking water to Mumbai have risen following heavy rainfall in their catchment areas. According to Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) data, the combined stock in the seven reservoirs that provide water to the city now stands at 82.07 per cent.
As per BMC, on Sunday, July 20, the collective water stock in these reservoirs is 11,87,829 million litres, which amounts to 82.07 per cent of their total capacity.
The BMC supplies drinking water daily from Upper Vaitarna, Modak Sagar, Tansa, Middle Vaitarna, Bhatsa, Vihar, and Tulsi lakes.
Among these, Modak Sagar is nearly full at 99.50 per cent, while Middle Vaitarna has seen the highest rise in level (0.25 m) in the past 24 hours. Bhatsa holds the largest individual storage at 5,53,646 ML, followed by Middle Vaitarna and Upper Vaitarna.
Tulsi is nearly full at 95.89 per cent, having received 254 mm of rainfall in the last 24 hours, the highest among all lakes. The cumulative rainfall recorded by the Bhandup Complex so far is 832.00 mm, with 4.00 mm received on Sunday.
Notably, Modak Sagar started overflowing on July 9, while Upper Vaitarna and Middle Vaitarna began releasing water earlier this month, indicating healthy reservoir levels ahead of the monsoon peak.
