Anger erupted in Navi Mumbai's Ulwe on Friday morning as residents of Ananta Towers, a housing project developed by CIDCO, held a ‘Handa March’ outside the CIDCO office in Bamandongari.

Starting at 11 am, protesters carried empty pots and chanted slogans such as “CIDCO wale chor hai” and “Paani do, paani do”, drawing attention to the severe water shortage affecting thousands of families.
