Sagar Faces Contaminated Water Crisis: Pipelines Through Drains, Yellow & Foamy Water

• Sagar residents are grappling with severe drinking water contamination, mirroring Indore's crisis where 15 people died.
• Old pipelines laid through drains cause leakages, leading to yellow, foamy, or salty water entering homes.
• Despite new Tata lines, areas like Indira Nagar Ward, Sindhi Camp, and Mominpura still receive dirty water.
• Complaints to Sagar Municipal Corporation, Tata Company, and MPUDC have not yielded significant improvements.
• Authorities are taking some action, including District Collector's instructions for repairs and sampling, and Municipal Commissioner's plan to clean tanks.

Why It Matters: Sagar is grappling with a severe contaminated water problem due to old infrastructure and poor maintenance.
