The burst also resulted in the disruption of water supply across several locations in Guwahati.

The Assam Human Rights Commission (AHRC) took suo motu cognisance of the water pipeline burst and directed the Kamrup Metro District Magistrate to conduct an inquiry and submit a report to the AHRC at the earliest.
