Mon Dec 23 15:23:25 UTC 2024: ## Thuvvakudi Residents Protest Water Shutoff Due to Land Dispute
**Tiruchi, December 23, 2024** – Fifty families residing on Barakath Nagar Third Street in Thuvvakudi, Tiruchi, are facing a severe water shortage after their public water tap was disconnected 15 days ago. The municipality reportedly cut off the supply because the area has been mistakenly designated as “poromboke” (uncultivable) land.
Residents claim the classification is erroneous and that they continue to pay property taxes. They have submitted a petition to the Collector, highlighting the hardship caused by the lack of water access, forcing many to travel long distances to fetch water. They are urging authorities to rectify the land designation and restore their water supply.
