Normal water supply will resume from Sunday morning,” said a senior KMC official. Water supply was stopped across large parts of south Calcutta from 9.30am on Saturday. Sources in the KMC said normal water supply hours in the city are 7-9am, noon-1pm, and 5-6pm. The treated water is then sent through a network of pipelines to various booster pumping stations that serve specific areas. “The process of sending water to the booster pumping stations will start by Saturday night, so that normal water supply can resume from Sunday morning,” the official said.
