Apart from treating patients, the medical team was also creating awareness among residents of safe drinking water and water contamination. Ruling out any case of cholera, the team members said they suspected water contamination as the cause for the diarrhoea outbreak.Sources said the contamination was traced to breached pipe lines in the public water distribution system and consequent mixing up of rainwater and drainage water. The civic body has swung into action to fix the repair, the sources added.Meanwhile, deputy director of Health Services Dr Nirmalson said the outbreak has been contained and no new case has been reported.
