JAMSHEDPUR – The city’s Moharda drinking water project faces complete shutdown after all three motors failed, leaving residents without water for three days.

The crisis began when the first motor malfunctioned twenty days ago.

Subsequently, a second motor broke down, leaving only one functional unit.

However, the situation worsened when the final operational motor also stopped working three days ago.

Meanwhile, local authorities attempted to provide relief through water tankers.

A concerned resident indicated that the temporary water supply measures were grossly inadequate.

Moreover, Jamshedpur East MLA Saryu Roy expressed strong disappointment over the maintenance negligence.

In response, JNAC and Tata Steel UISL officials promised to repair one motor by Sunday evening.

Furthermore, the incident has sparked debates about infrastructure maintenance protocols.

On the other hand, Roy questioned the delayed response to earlier breakdowns.

The MLA emphasized that better preventive maintenance could have averted this crisis.
