Water contamination kills 3 in Indore: Hospitals see rush of patients; warning issued to residents

Three people died in Indore’s Bhagirathpura area after consuming contaminated water, with over 15,000 residents affected by diarrhoea and vomiting. The contamination was traced to a newly constructed toilet dumping waste into a sinkhole above a water supply line joint. Authorities are flushing pipelines and supplying water via tankers while investigating the incident.
