The Faridabad Metropolitan Development Authority (FMDA) has advised residents to store water in advance
June 28, 2026: Residents of Faridabad and nearby Ballabgarh are likely to face water shortages for nearly 48 hours as the Faridabad Metropolitan Development Authority (FMDA) has announced a temporary suspension of water supply. The shutdown will begin on the evening of June 29 and continue until the evening of July 1 due to essential pipeline improvement work. Authorities have urged residents to store sufficient water and use it carefully during the disruption.
The maintenance work involves connecting the Raini Well Water Supply Line No. 2 with another pipeline near Badarpur village. According to FMDA, the project is expected to improve water pressure and strengthen the overall supply system. However, officials cautioned that areas located at the tail end of the distribution network may experience low water pressure even after supply is restored.
The disruption is expected to affect Tirkha Colony, Shiv Colony, Chawla Colony, Sector 24, Mujesar, Sectors 7 and 8, Ballabgarh Sector 3, and several nearby localities. FMDA has advised residents to fill overhead tanks, buckets and other storage containers before the afternoon of June 29 and avoid unnecessary water usage such as washing vehicles or clothes until regular supply resumes.
