Srinagar, Mar 11: In a bid to provide immediate relief to water-scarce hamlets on the outskirts of Sopore, MLA Irshad Rasool Kar on Wednesday commissioned a high-capacity pontoon pump at the Nowpora water sourcing point.
The installation, which cost approximately Rs 9 lakh, comes in response to frequent technical failures that have crippled the existing water supply system in the area.
Officials said the new pump is expected to restore water access to several affected localities that have been facing dry taps for an extended period.
