Delhi Faces Water Woes: Bhagya Vihar Cut for 48 Hours
24 Feb
Summary
- Water supply will be unavailable for 48 hours starting Wednesday morning.
- Interconnection work on new raw water pipelines causes the disruption.
- Residents in Bhagya Vihar are advised to store water for essential needs.
Residents in several parts of Delhi are bracing for water supply interruptions this week due to crucial interconnection work being undertaken by the Jal Board. The Bhagya Vihar area is particularly affected, facing a 48-hour water cut that began on Wednesday, February 25th, at 11:00 AM and is scheduled to conclude on Friday, February 27th, at 11:00 AM.
This significant disruption is attributed to the government's efforts to connect newly installed 1500 mm diameter twin raw water pipelines to the existing main line of the Dwarka Water Treatment Plant. The work involves intricate interconnections at Bhagya Vihar, necessitating the temporary suspension of water services.
In light of the prolonged outage, the Delhi Jal Board has urged all residents in the affected localities to store an adequate amount of water to ensure their requirements are met throughout the 48-hour period. The proactive measure aims to mitigate inconvenience for households.
