Mohali/ Zirakpur 30 July- The residents of Savitri Towers under Zirakpur MC, which comes under Mohali district, are facing many problems during the rainy season, due to which the lives of the people here have become hell on one hand, while the work of laying sewerage/drainage pipes was being done by MC Zirakpur inside Savitri Tower Society on VIP Road Zirakpur, but after digging, the work has been left incomplete for a long time, due to which people are facing many problems.
Baljeet Singh Balla, former head, advocate Sudhir Pasi, Som Prakash Bhosale and other local people living in Savitri Towers questioned the working system of MC Zirakpur in front of the media and said that due to the pathetic maintenance of the society, the fate of senior citizens and pregnant women is at stake.
There are a lot of potholes which need immediate attention. He said that the incomplete project of laying sewerage pipes is visible. There is an urgent need to complete this unfinished work by MC Zirakpur inside Savitri Tower Society in VIP Road Zirakpur, said the locals.
In case of any emergency, it is impossible for rescue vehicles like fire brigade or ambulance to reach the gate number 2 side of the society, which is closed for the last 1 month in the society. The internal road of the society is always under maintenance by the RWA. But for unknown reasons, the MC of Zirakpur took the responsibility of laying drainage pipes to clear the waterlogging in the Zirakpur VIP street drainage system from the Lohgarh side.
The street lights installed on this road are not giving enough light for pedestrians, which neither the Municipal Council nor the management cares about. People say that due to the incomplete pipe laying work and the dug pits, every day some driver or the other falls into them and many times animals also become victims of this accident, while during the rainy season, flies and mosquitoes breeding in the rain and dirty water have started making people fall prey to diseases.
Local people expressed their anger against the MC and said in warning words that if this incomplete work is not completed as soon as possible, then the MC office will be surrounded with the help of the local people of the society along with the officials of other organizations, the responsibility of which will be of the local MC officials and administration.
