India, May 5 -- The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has initiated the process for housing societies in Mohammadwadi to apply for legal water connections days after the commissioning of new overhead tanks near Ghule Chowk.

On Monday, the civic body put up a public notice in the area, asking societies to apply for new pipeline connections. The move follows the completion of the overhead tank project near Royal Heritage Mall and successful trial runs to ensure smooth water flow.

Nandkishor Jagtap, chief engineer, PMC water supply department, said regular distribution is expected to begin in about 10 days. "We are currently cleaning the pipelines and conducting trials. Distribution will start in a phased manner," he said.
