Minister Subhash Desai told Aurangabad officials to ensure regular water supply.

District guardian minister Subhash Desai on Friday told the officials in the district to ensure that people are not faced with drinking water problems as almost all the water bodies and dams here have 98% of stocks. He said the officials concerned should make an effective plan now so that people don’t face water supply-related problems. The meeting was attended by the district collector and the municipal administrator.

Minister Mr. Desai asked the officials concerned to ensure that residents get adequate clean drinking water. He pointed out that due to heavy rainfall, all the water bodies have got adequate stocks, but the officials are still required to plan judiciously and achieve the target.
