New Delhi: Large parts of Dwarka and IGI Airport went without water for most of the past week after a mob from Madhu Vihar and Rajapuri areas practically took over a command tank in Dwarka and forcibly diverted water to their colonies.
Locals reported that the residents of these areas, armed with thick wooden sticks, were visiting command tank 2 in Dwarka every day for the past week and threatening the Delhi Development Authority staff stationed there.
"Several of us witnessed this happening and were unable to do anything since the people were armed. They were forcibly diverting water meant for Dwarka and the Airport to their areas. We complained to DDA on several occasions and finally police had to be called. Due to this, most parts of the colony did not get any water since last week," said a resident.
