Muddy water at Ambala underbridge troubles commuters

The underbridge connecting Sector 9 and 10 is waterlogged for the past three days even though there has been no rain. This underbridge is the lifeline of Ambala and many top government officials serving in the corporation pass through this site. Nobody has taken cognisance of this matter. I hope the administration will be kind enough to look into the matter to set things right so that hapless residents get respite.

House ramps encroaching on street roads in Ambala Cantt

It is seen that a fairly large number of houses in various colonies of Ambala have made ramps in front of their gates, jutting well into street roads. This has not only jeopardised commuters, but can also lead to accidents. Aesthetic beauty of the lanes is also spoilt. Some people have also made balconies projecting outside their houses. We have to be responsible citizens ourselves before we blame the authorities for the lack of civic facilities. The MC authorities will do well to take a stock of these encroachments and take corrective measures.

Pedestrian pathway not cleaned in Panchkula

Last week, I decided to take walk along the Zirkpur- Shimla highway, and was sad to see the condition of the pedestrian pathway near Sector 21, Panchkula. It was not maintained. The concerned department should take care of it.
