Indore is grappling with a severe water shortage as rainfall remains below normal levels. In response, the Municipal Corporation has halted the issuance of new tap and bulk water connections under the Narmada scheme. The city is also implementing a comprehensive water policy and installing hydrants to manage the crisis. To review the situation, the state government has scheduled a high‑level meeting this week, which will include Minister Vijayvargiya and other senior officials.
