KATHMANDU –\u00a0 Yet again, the Melamchi Drinking Water pipe burst in the Kathmandu Valley this morning. It has not been long that the neighbouring Babarmahal area witnessed same incident.<\/p>\n
The blowout got the Thapathali area- from Thapathali Chowk to Norvic Hospital- waterlogged, disrupting the vehicular movement.<\/p>\n
Chief Executive Director at Kathmandu Valley Drinking Water Ltd (KUKL), Ashok Kumar Paudel, informed that they were preparing to identify the reason behind the burst and repair the pipe soon.<\/p>\n
“The resumption of water supply will be ensured soon after repairing the broken pipe,” he said. The houses and shops in the area are waterlogged after the incident.<\/p>\n
Three weeks back, the public offices at Babarmahal had to be closed suddenly after the similar burst. Even the road was collapsed by the blowout. The water pipes were ruptured while digging for a trench to expand an electric wire underground.<\/p>\n
Executive Chief Poudel further informed that KUKL would investigate the Thapathali incident by forming a committee.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
