Strictness on waterlogging in Delhi: Rekha Gupta gave strict instructions to the officials

 

Every year during monsoon in Delhi, the problem of waterlogging becomes a big challenge for the common citizens. But this time the situation seems to be changing. Taking this problem seriously, BJP leader Rekha Gupta has given strict instructions to the officials of the concerned departments in a special meeting today. She made it clear that waterlogging should not occur anywhere in Delhi and the public should not have to face inconvenience in any situation.

Rekha Gupta told in the meeting that this time there has been no waterlogging in areas notorious for waterlogging like Minto Bridge and ITO intersection. The credit for this goes to the promptness, technical proficiency and efficiency of the officials. This example proves that if a plan is made in time and all the departments work together, then the solution to this perennial problem is possible.

It was also decided in the meeting that all the departments of the Delhi government, such as PWD, MCD, Water Board, and Traffic Police will have to work in mutual coordination. It should be ensured that the drainage system is in order, the drains are cleaned on time and all necessary preparations are completed before the rains.

Rekha Gupta directed the officials that wherever waterlogging has been observed, its causes should be immediately identified and its solution should be ensured on priority basis. It was said to give priority to permanent solutions and not temporary ones. She said that "the real solution to the problem will be found only when we reach its root and eliminate the possibility of its recurrence in future."

Rekha Gupta said that "the people of Delhi should get relief at all costs. Waterlogging not only causes traffic jams and delays, but also affects the health and safety of the people." She also made it clear that the negligence of any department will not be tolerated and accountability will be fixed.

The problem of waterlogging in a metropolis like Delhi is not new, but this time the hopes have been raised due to the activeness of the government and the administration. Rekha Gupta's initiative and strict instructions are an important step in this direction. If all the departments work together in a planned manner and modern technology is used properly, then certainly Delhi can be made waterlogging free in the coming days.
