The Vijayawada Municipal Corporation is planning to overhaul the decades-old drinking water supply system of the city in the coming years.
There are about 2.23 lakh house service connections as per the VMC in the city and the civic body claims to supply about 150 litres of water per head.
While the number of house service connections increased over the years, there are water pipelines that are two to three decades old and needed to be replaced and also more areas are to be covered.
