Water disruptions will occur in several parts of New Delhi from 10:00 Jan. 29 to 02:00 Jan. 30 due to maintenance work on a major pipeline.

Some surrounding regions could experience low water pressure.

Business disruptions are possible during the water outages, especially for companies that rely on large quantities of municipal water for their operations.

Pressure and water quality may be poor after service resumes; run taps for several minutes before using water. Minimize nonessential water use for the duration of the disruptions.
