As temperatures soar with the onset of summer, ensuring access to drinking water becomes paramount. However, despite assurances from the Municipal Corporation, several gardens under its purview lack adequate drinking water facilities, posing a challenge to visitors.
A recent audit of the city’s 270 gardens revealed that a staggering 70 percent don’t have drinking water infrastructure. Particularly concerning is the absence of water systems in more than 120 gardens, with over 60 such gardens located in the western region of the city.
