Water pipeline burst causes traffic chaos in #Ghaziabad

GHAZIABAD: A pipeline burst near Swarn Jayanti Park in Indirapuram on Saturday morning caused major inconvenience to commuters as water gushed into the middle of the road forcing them to change their route. The Ghaziabad Development Authority, however, remained unaware of this till late in the day. “We have not received any complaint of a pipeline burst till now.

But from the location which has been mentioned, seems that an internal pipeline must have burst,” said GDA`s executive engineer Kaptan Singh. He, however, assured that the problem would be attended to soon. “People had a tough time dealing with the problem as many had to change their route.

I got into an altercation with a biker who splashed water all over me,” said Sohan Lal, a fruit vendor. “Water flowing in the middle of the road like this is risky, ” he added. “Pipeline burst in the area is common as a large number of cases have come to our notice in the recent past,” said a resident of Indirapuram, Karamveer Ahlawat.
