The Guwahati Municipal Corporation’s (GMC) Satpukhuri water supply plant will be shut down for two days starting Tuesday, impacting 16 localities and approximately 15,000 households. This disruption is due to essential restoration work at the plant’s intake point, which processes 22.5 million litres of water daily. The affected areas include Uzanbazar, Silpukhuri, Chandmari, and several others. The Satpukhuri facility, established in 1930 and upgraded in 1984, operates alongside the Panbazar and Kamakhya plants to provide water to the city. This temporary suspension highlights the importance of maintaining critical infrastructure and the potential impact on residents when such facilities require repairs.
