Kolkata: In view of the early morning puja schedule this year, the KMC water supply department has started trial runs for supplying water to households and pandals from 3 am instead of 6 am. According to a KMC official, the first trial was conducted a couple of days ago.
Some glitches were noticed during the trials, said an official. “We are concerned about huge wastage of water through the roadside taps,” said the official.
The officials are also worried about manpower. “We will prepare a roster for the employees, who will be assigned the task to initiate early morning supply during the festive days,” he added.
