Earlier this month, water supply to several areas in north and central Delhi was disrupted as the Delhi Jal Board (DJB) worked on a major leak in its supply line near Kamla Market. The repair work, which affected supply from Wazirabad and Chandrawal water treatment plants, began on Sunday and was initially expected to be completed within 12 hours. However, it faced delays due to engineering complications.
