Vishrantwadi Pipeline Burst Causes Water Wastage
In Pune, a big water pipe broke near the Vishrantwadi Police Station.
This caused a lot of drinking water to be wasted.
The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) and a company called Larsen & Toubro (L&T) are working together to fix the pipe.
They are cutting the damaged part, reducing the water pressure, and replacing the connection.
The authorities have asked people to stay away from the site and use other roads until the pipe is fixed.
