Water levels in Marathwada's major dams have dropped to 33% of their total capacity, signalling a critical shortage as the region heads into a period of increased water demand.

The depleting reserves are likely to impact irrigation schedules and drinking water supplies across the drought-prone region, including Aurangabad district, which depends heavily on these reservoirs for sustenance.

Authorities are monitoring the situation closely as the dry season progresses and agricultural needs intensify across Marathwada.
