“For whatever reasons like developing cracks, pipeline breaking etc, the water supply is closed. The PMC has started repair work of the pipeline. However, due to such unplanned incident, this will be problematic where residents will be inconvenienced. But it doesn’t seem like the pipeline has been damaged by anyone purposefully. Hopefully, till 4th October (Wednesday), the pipeline will get repaired & water supply would begin again,” Jagtap added.
