A press release on Thursday said, “A shutdown for 24 hrs w.e.f. 05:00 PM to 5:00 PM on dated 22.05.2025 will be in force… for the work of Raising of 900mm dia Duplicate main pipe line which is blocking the flow of drain no.12A near WHO.”
As a result, water supply to the Wazirabad water treatment plant has been stopped.

The disruption affected areas including Chirag Delhi, Khirki Extension, Panchsheel Vihar, and Saket, due to maintenance work on the BRT Road in Sadiq Nagar.
