Water supply to large parts of Sindhi Colony, and the HPCL and BPCL units at Chembur, was affected after a 24-inch drinking water pipeline burst near the Chembur police station on Monday afternoon.

Water Department officials said the repairs would be completed by midnight on Monday.

“Water supply will be restored by Tuesday morning,” said an official from the department, requesting anonymity.

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has blamed a Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) contractor, who is working on the Monorail project.

MMRDA has accepted the contractor’s negligence but said no action will be taken against him because it claims the damage is minor.
