Summary:
- The Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) has banned the use of potable water for non-drinking purposes in the city to prepare for potential water scarcity during the upcoming summer months.
- The BWSSB has advised residents to use treated water from alternative sources, such as rainwater harvesting or recycled water, for activities like washing cars, watering gardens, and cleaning.
- The move aims to conserve the city's limited water resources and ensure adequate supply for drinking and other essential uses during the dry season.
