After receiving poor quality water for the past several weeks, residents of an Andheri West society got another shock a few days ago when the water provided by the BMC also contained wriggling worms. Residents of Empire Cooperative Housing Society in Azad Nagar, Andheri West, have raised concerns about the health threats posed by the contaminated water.

The 50 families residing in the Empire Cooperative Housing Society have reported receiving poor-quality water.

On top of that, for the past two days, we have been getting water with red-coloured worms. We have been buying mineral water to cook and drink.”
