Tirupur: Public in Tirupur protested condemning the non-supply of drinking water for more than 15 days.
More than 500 families live in areas including Tirupur-Dharapuram Road, Perichipalayam, PKR Layout, and Vinoba Nagar. As such, drinking water has not been supplied here for more than 15 days. Due to this the people of the area are in great trouble.
In spite of repeatedly complaining about this, Corporation officials have not taken any action.
As a result, the people in the area besieged the water tank in the Vinoba Nagar area and engaged in a protest. Also, they were involved in an argument with the officials about this.
The officials said that the drinking water supply was disrupted due to a break in a pipeline and assured the public that the breakage would be repaired by this evening and water supply would be resumed. Following this, the public dispersed.
