💨 Abstract

Maharashtra Health Minister Prakash Abitkar announced plans to introduce a law ensuring clean drinking water for citizens, with penalties for water polluters. The move comes amid rising Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) cases, confirmed to be water-borne, in Pune. The Pune Municipal Corporation is directed to ensure proper chlorination of water in affected areas and monitor water sources, including sewage and poultry farms.
