"Mumbai Water Crisis"

Due to the lack of rain during the 2009 monsoon, Mumbai is facing one of the worst water shortages in its history and the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (BMC) cut up to 30% of its water supply in 2010. Water thieves, who connect illegal pipes to the city's water line and steal water for sale, are blamed for a part of the shortage.

People wait in line for the city's water truck to refill a community water tank on March 19, 2010 in Mumbai, India. Due to the lack of rain in the previous year, Mumbai faced one of its worst water shortages in history.
