South Delhi faces shortage of water

NEW DELHI: Several areas in South Delhi have been facing an acute shortage of water for the past two days because of leakage in an 800-mm pipe near Sarai Kale Khan.

According to Delhi Jal Board officials, there was a breach in the pipeline that carries water to Okhla on Wednesday and a second breach occurred on Friday near the CNG gas filling station in Sarai Kale Khan. Consequently several areas including Okhla Phase I, II and III, Sukhdev Vihar, Kalkaji, parts of Chittaranjan Park, Giri Nagar, Jeevan Nagar, Kirlokri and Siddharth Extension have not been getting water.
