Two mobile teams have been assigned duties for inspection, review and repair of facilities at the 207 tubewells, six rainy wells, 39 overhead tanks, 38 underground storage tanks and 38 Ganga water storage tanks in the city.

The Authority has already kicked off the chlorination water treatment system, officials said.

With consumption expected to go up to 44 million litres per hour during summers as against the present 30 million, Authority officials say supply is sufficient and all machinery has been updated, including the generators and pumps at all stations.

However, sources say the present capacity of 278 MLD the city could fall short by 40-50 MLD during peak demand months.

And, as the Ganga water pipeline project gets delayed, officials of the pollution control department have suggested supplying water from the Hindon River.
