(MENAFN- AsiaNet News) Kozhikode: The post-mortem proceedings at Kozhikode Medical College were delayed by one and a half hours due to water supply interruption. 11 dead bodies were brought for post-mortem. After the completion of procedures for five bodies, the water supply halted. Due to this, the post-mortem of the remaining six bodies was delayed.
The crisis occurred when the pipeline from Koolimadu broke last day. In the event of a water supply outage, the water is normally supplied from a standard submersible pump. However, a power outage in this area triggered a crisis. The problem was temporarily rectified by filling a tanker truck with water. Nonetheless, these issues have caused a one-and-a-half-hour delay in the post-mortem process.
This is the second time that the water supply has been disrupted due to a burst pipe this week. The efforts have been made to install a new tank to prevent disruption of water supply to the mortuary in case of pipe bursts. A tank with a storage capacity of 2000 liters will be installed under the leadership of PWD.
