The Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC) will implement a 10 per cent water cut across its jurisdiction every Wednesday as part of precautionary measures to manage available water stocks amid concerns over the potential impact of El Nino and the possibility of drought-like conditions.

Under the revised water management plan, supply will be suspended in several parts of Thane for 24 hours, from 9 am on Wednesday to 9 am on Thursday. The measure will be implemented through the civic body's own water supply network and STEM Water Distribution and Infrastructure Company Pvt. Ltd.
