Informational

Water disruptions will occur for 16 hours in several parts of New Delhi starting at 20:00 on Sept. 10 due to maintenance work. Utility provider Delhi Jal Board has indicated that the planned outages will impact several regions, including areas in and near Azadpur Police Station, Gopalpur, Gujranwala Town, Lawrence Road, Punjabi Bagh, Shalimar Bagh, and Wazirpur Industrial Area.

Business disruptions are possible during planned outages, especially for companies that rely on large quantities of municipal water for their operations. The water outages could extend beyond the estimated duration.

Stock up on drinking water and confirm alternative water supplies for business operations. Use only bottled water from reputable suppliers for drinking and hygienic purposes. 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.
