A water pipeline burst in suburban Andheri in Mumbai on Wednesday resulting in the leaking water shooting several feet high in the air near residential buildings.

Mumbai civic body officials said the affected pipeline of 1200 mm diameter is located opposite Infinity Mall at Oshiwara. The rupture was reported at around 2.45 pm.

Several videos of the incident doing rounds on social media show water gushing out from the ruptured pipeline and shooting up as high as 8-10-storey buildings.

A Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) statement said the hydraulic department first stopped the water supply in the pipeline and a repairing work was undertaken immediately.

Due to the incident, there will be no supply of water to some areas, including Millat Nagar, SVP Nagar, MHADA and Lokhandwala till the pipeline repair work is completed, it said.
