In a public notice shared on social media, the water utility said the disruption is due to interconnection work involving a newly laid 1,500 mm diameter twin raw water pipeline in the Bhagya Vihar area. The new line is being connected to the existing twin raw water main at the Dwarka Water Treatment Plant, which will require a temporary suspension of supply.
