The pond level of Wazirabad WTP has dipped to 672.8 feet as against the stipulated level of 674.5 feet which is required to maintain normal production of water to fulfill the requirements of North and East Delhiites.
Adding a woe, Haryana has also shrunk the water supply from earlier 425 cusecs to 385 cusec to the Haiderpur Water Treatment Plant.
