Even as the scorching summer sun keeps blazing, the city has plenty of water in its lakes that will last for another two and a half months. Currently, the water stock stands at 25 per cent of the total capacity, which will be enough for the city even if the monsoon is delayed a little.

This year, all the seven lakes had a total of 3.64 million litres of water on Tuesday. The city gets water from seven lakes—Bhatsa, Tansa, Upper Vaitarna, Middle Vaitarna, Modak Sagar, Tulsi and Vihar—which have a combined capacity of 14.47 lakh million litres.
