Vast quantities of water got wasted after a JCB machine ruptured a water pipe at a service road construction site in Khandepar on Tuesday evening.

Water supply from the Opa project was later stopped to repair the damaged pipeline, thereby disrupting water supply in the area.

Work to construct a service road between Khandepar and Kurti is going on in full swing since the last few days.

On Tuesday, a JCB machine working on the service road near Kapel in Khandepar suddenly struck a water pipeline, rupturing it in the process and vast quantities of water began gushing out for quite some time. Water supply from the Opa project was stopped and a PWD rushed to the site to inspect the damage and to conduct repair work.
