OFFICIALS OF DJB SAID THEY ARE LOOKING FOR THE POINT OF FAILURE IN SUPPLY LINES AND WILL FIND A SOLUTION SOON
NEW DELHI: Residents in parts of Maharani Bagh in south-east Delhi on Wednesday said that the water supplied to the area over the past few days has a foul smell, and said that they suspect that it has been contaminated with sewage, resulting in health issues among people in the locality.
The Delhi Jal Board (DJB) said that it has taken note of the complaints, and is working to identify the point where the potable water pipeline may have been contaminated.
Maharani Bagh RWA president Shiva Mehra said that around three days ago, residents started noticing a foul smell in their water supply, and so far, around 15 blocks have been affected.
