Water woes
PUNE: As temperatures soar and water levels dip across Maharashtra, the Pune division has emerged as the region with the highest number of water tankers deployed to address the escalating water crisis.
According to recent data released by the Maharashtra Water Supply and Sanitation Department, a total 65 water tankers are currently supplying water to parched villages in the Pune division—the highest number of water tankers deployed among all divisions of the state. The Pune division is followed by the Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar division with 51 water tankers deployed; the Kokan division with 46 water tankers deployed; the Amravati division with 39 water tankers deployed; and the Nashik division with 22 water tankers deployed. Currently, there are no water tankers deployed in the Nagpur division of the state, as per the data.
This surge in tanker deployment reflects the growing water scarcity in the region.

Patel at 150: A life in service of the nation
When India gained independence on August 15, 1947, the British left behind a fractured subcontinent that included more than 560 princely states. Without geographical unity, its hard-won freedom would have been hollow. With vision, determination, and an unyielding will, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, India’s first deputy prime minister and home minister, forged these scattered principalities into a single nation, giving independent India its shape and strength. However, the efforts of this great unifier did not receive the recognition he deserved.
