DIAL DMRC trade charges over pipeline damage
New Delhi, Jul 11. The Delhi Airport authorities and DMRC today traded charges over the damage to a pipeline that had crippled the air conditioning system of the Terminal 1 on July 8 during metro construction work.
While sources said that the incident could have been bigger had the "Trenchless Boring Machine (TBM) damaged high tension wires passing near the pipeline", Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) dismissed the claims saying there was no TBM within two kilometres of the site in question.
"Tunnelling in this area has been completed long back. Since, there is no TBM in the vicinity; the question of a TBM operator committing any mistake does not arise. Ongoing work was excavation for construction of entry exit structures," DMRC said in a statement.
Sources claimed, apart from the pipeline, damage was caused to some low tension wires as well.
