Drinking water has been given top priority in planning the use of stored water. A minimum water cut of 10 percent will be implemented to conserve supplies. This measure aims to mitigate a potential drought-like situation caused by reduced rainfall and limited water storage.

The water resources will be managed up to a certain point in the future. Details of the plan are available, including the timing of the water cut implementation.

Further information on the water management plan can be found through other sources, including the role of a specific minister in directing urban local bodies to take action.
