India, May 2 -- To prevent waterlogging at the 400 kV power substation in Daultabad, the Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) has asked the Haryana Vidyut Prasaran Nigam Limited (HVPNL) to construct a ring bund around the substation, officials said on Thursday.

According to officials, the substation supplies power to the city including several residential sectors along Dwarka expressway and parts of old Gurugram. It also provides electricity to the Basai water treatment plant (WTP), which supplies 270 MLD water to the city out of total 670 MLD of water supplied by the GMDA.

Last year during monsoons, severe waterlogging occured at the power substation which was tackled by deploying heavy pumps, officials said.
