<p>The incident comes a day after the water supply in the city was restored. Around a month-and-a-half-long wait, the city&rsquo;s water supply was restored on Sunday. The city gets water from two major lines&mdash;a 2.5-metre diameter line from Tansa and 5.5-metre diameter tunnel from Bhatsa.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The first damage occurred on March 3 at Kopri, Thane when a 2.5-metre line leaked during the construction of a bridge.&nbsp;</p>
<p>On March 27, the water main line near Mulund octroi naka was damaged during MSRDC&rsquo;s construction work of a box culvert. Major disruption occurred when the 5.5-metre diameter tunnel was punctured at Wagle Estate, during illegal digging for a bore well on March 28.</p>

This caused a leakage of 3 million litres of water daily. Water supply from the tunnel was stopped on March 31 and diverted to the 2750 dia Vaitarna main, 2750 dia Upper Vaitarna main, and 3000 dia Tansa replacement water mains. Due to the repair work the city had been getting 15 percent less water than the daily supply, which is 3,850 million litres.</p><p>
