**Hyderabad, February 17, 2025** – Residents of Hyderabad are facing a 24-hour disruption to their water supply, beginning at 6 a.m. today.

The extensive service interruption affects a large swathe of the city, including major areas such as S.R. Nagar, Banjara Hills, Kukatpally, and parts of Madhapur and Secunderabad. Numerous other localities, including several villages supplied by the Godavari Drinking Water Supply Scheme phase 1, will also experience the water cut.
