Shimla faces water crisis amid rising turbidity in supply sources
Shimla residents are likely to face a drinking water shortage over the next few days due to extremely high turbidity levels in the town's main water sources following heavy rainfall. SJPNL says turbidity in Nauti khud at Gumma, one of Shimla's primary water supply schemes, has reached a record-breaking 6,850 NTU, making water unfit for human consumption.
