Residents of Ghatkopar West were in for a scare when water from a burst pipeline entered their homes at around 3 am on Saturday. The pipeline burst not just flooded about 100 homes in the area, but also the strong pressure bouncing off water about 10 feet in the air, led to the caving in of a section of the road. Although the British-era pipeline was repaired around 7.30 am, water supply to the eastern suburb was impacted  all through Saturday.
