Hyderabad is grappling with severe water scarcity even in the winter season, a direct consequence of the El Niño phenomenon. Residents are facing significant challenges due to depleted groundwater levels.

For both drinking and domestic purposes, water board tankers have become the primary lifeline for the city's inhabitants. The demand for these water tankers has surged dramatically.

The lack of adequate rainfall attributed to El Niño has led to a substantial drop in groundwater levels, severely impacting the operations of the water board.

With such conditions prevailing in winter, citizens are expressing deep concern about the potential severity of water shortages in the upcoming summer months.

The capital city is clearly experiencing the effects of El Niño, with many households finding it impossible to manage their daily needs without the delivery of water tankers.

Given the acute water shortage in Hyderabad, the capital of Telangana, there is an urgent need for the state government to implement immediate measures to address this critical issue.
