As Delhi swelters under a blistering heatwave, South Delhi neighborhoods face an additional challenge – restricted water supply, now limited to once daily.
The soaring temperatures have led to an unprecedented surge in water demand, further exacerbating the strain on already limited water resources.
Residents are forced to adapt to a new routine of water usage, with implications for daily chores, hygiene, and overall quality of life.
Businesses, particularly those reliant on water, are feeling the pinch, while vulnerable communities are disproportionately affected by the rationing measures.
The crisis underscores the urgent need for long-term, sustainable water management strategies to mitigate the impact of climate change and population growth on Delhi's water supply.
Despite the challenges, communities are coming together to find innovative solutions and support each other through this testing time.
