💨 Abstract

Renowned water conservationist Rajendra Singh blamed corruption for the contaminated water crisis in Indore, which resulted in at least six deaths. He described the incident as a "system-created disaster," highlighting issues with pipeline construction and water management. Indore relies on the Narmada river for water, with significant monthly expenses on electricity for the supply project. Singh criticized the lack of responsible water management and the high cost of water supply. The administration confirmed six deaths, but local residents reported higher fatalities.
