Piped water supply to villages, towns, municipalities and the City Corporation in Vellore and Ranipet under the Cauvery Joint Drinking Water Supply Scheme will be resumed soon as the key water pipelines along the Palar river have been restored by the Tamil Nadu Water Supply and Drainage (TWAD) Board.
At present, the TWAD Board officials said that final alignment work of these damaged pipelines along the Palar is being undertaken for the past few days after officials found a missing link in these pipelines. These pipelines connect areas in three districts — Tirupattur, Vellore and Ranipet — along the river, providing water supply to all local bodies in these limits for more than two decades.
