‘On deaf ears’
Vinayak Kadam, a motorist, said, “I use the road frequently and was appalled to see that the authorities were least interested in repairing the pipeline, which has resulted in wastage of countless litres of potable water. I even informed officials at the nearby traffic police chowkie, thinking that they would inform the agency concerned. But nothing has been done till date.”

When contacted, CIDCO chairman Sanjay Bhatia said, “I will immediately inform the authorities concerned. They will look into the matter and ensure that the issue is resolved by Monday.” When questioned whether the water loss would impact the supply in Kalamboli, the official assured that the supply would remain unaffected.
