Mumbai: Water supply will be affected in some areas of BMC wards such as G North, K-East, S, H-East and N ward from Jan 20 to Jan 22 and there will also be changes in regular water supply timings, for carrying out pipeline connection work, as a section of the 2400 mm diameter Upper Vaitarna main water pipeline has been diverted for the Metro Line 7A project work. The work on a cross connection of this diverted section will be carried out by BMC in the K-East ward. The work will be carried from 9 am Jan 20 till 5 am on Jan 22.
