The Water Board plans to shut down the Krishna water drinking supply Phases I and II for 24 hours on April 4. The two phases supply 180 million gallons per day to the twin cities. Now phase III is also being inter-connected to the Krishna following which an additional 45 MGD will be supplied to phase III. Hence the twin cities could go without drinking water on April 4.
