Speeding Truck Damages Surya Yojana Pipeline Near Nalasopara, Causing Water Wastage and Disruptions
A speeding truck collided with the Surya Yojana water pipeline near Nalasopara on the Mumbai-Ahmedabad Highway, causing a rupture that sent water gushing 20 to 25 feet into the air and wasting lakhs of litres. The breach worsened waterlogging and disrupted traffic amid ongoing heavy monsoon rains. Repair efforts by the Vasai-Virar Municipal Corporation are underway but may take several hours, potentially causing temporary water supply disruptions in parts of Vasai-Virar.
