Their repeated complaints have failed to evoke any concrete action by the MC to solve the problem.
Subhash Goel, a local resident, said the sewage overflowing from the manhole in front of house number 3365 had spread on the entire street
A retired bank employee, P.C Singla, said the sewerage in the area was in a very bad condition for the past over 15 days, posing health risks to the entire neighbourhood. Multiple complaints have been filed by a number of residents, but no concrete action has been taken by the Municipal Corporation authorities, he claimed.
The residents say the dirty water has covered the entire street and reached right close to their gates. Foul smell emanating from the stagnant sewage is giving a tough time to locals.
