Indore Water Crisis: Sewage Water In Drinking Supply, Deadly Contamination Kills 10+

In this special report, India Today Senior Correspondent Piyush Mishra exposes the grim reality of water contamination in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, often touted as the country's 'cleanest city'. Reporting from the Sonegandi area, Mishra highlights how residents are forced to consume water from pipelines laid directly beneath untreated sewage lines. The report draws parallels to the tragedy in Bhagirathpura, where 'more than 10 people have already lost their lives because of drinking the contaminated water'. Visuals confirm the proximity of drinking water and sewage connections, a hazard residents say they have reported for seven years without administrative action. The segment underscores the severe health risks and civic apathy facing the local population.
