The locality of Topuito, in Larde District, experienced social unrest following the introduction of charges for the consumption of potable water. The measure, recently implemented by the authorities managing the water supply system, took part of the population by surprise and sparked strong opposition.
According to local sources, residents claim that there was insufficient prior awareness and consultation regarding the new tariffs. Many argue that they are facing economic hardships and consider water an essential resource that should remain accessible to all, particularly in a region where access to basic services is still limited.
As a result of the discontent, groups of residents gathered in various parts of the locality, demanding clarification from the relevant authorities. The situation prompted the presence of police officers to maintain public order and prevent possible acts of vandalism. (Mozanorte)
