Chaos prevailed near OTS Circle on JLN Marg on Saturday evening as the Bisalpur pipeline leaked with lakhs of litres of water gushing out of the damaged pipe. According to eyewitnesses, two people got tripped in the sudden flow of water but rescued by policemen and officials. According to sources, over 70 lakh litres of water got wasted within half an hour of the incident after which PHED officials managed to close down the supply. Though police diverted the traffic, a number of vehicles and people were left stranded. Only after the water supply was stopped the situation returned to normal. Initial reports say that the water poured out of a damaged joint in the pipeline.
