Several areas in the country will, today (26), experience a 24-hour suspension of the water supply, stated the National Water Supply and Drainage Board (NWSDB).

Accordingly, the water cut will be in effect from 9 am this morning until 9 am tomorrow (27).

Maharagama, Boralesgamuwa, Kottawa, Pannipitiya, Rukmalgama, Pelwatte, Mattegoda, Homagama, Meepe, and Padukka areas will be affected by the interruption to the water supply.

It is mentioned that the water supply to the areas affected by the Colombo City East Water Supply Scheme has been disrupted due to the upgrading of the pipelines.
