Residents of Teliamura's PWD department complex are facing a severe water shortage, with no potable water available for several days.
Teliamura, Tripura – A sudden water outage has left the PWD department complex in Teliamura without potable water since early Thursday. The complex, which houses several government offices, now relies on bottled water and makeshift storage tanks to meet basic needs.
The shortage has disrupted daily operations, forcing staff to postpone meetings and delay maintenance work. Local residents report that the water supply line was damaged during recent monsoon rains, and the main reservoir has not been refilled.
Teliamura Municipal Corporation has dispatched a repair crew and is coordinating with the state water supply department to restore service. A temporary water tank has been installed, but officials say it will not meet the complex’s full demand.
The water crisis is expected to persist until the repair team completes the pipeline work, which officials estimate will take 48 to 72 hours. Residents are advised to conserve water and use the temporary supply responsibly.
