No end to residents’ plight in Shahabad
There is no end to the plight of residents of Shahabad. The GT Road overpass has created many problems for the people. The underpass of Ladwa Road under the GT Road is very difficult to pass. It is full of potholes and water accumulates as soon as it rains. Last night, only a shower made it a pool of dirty water. We can imagine what happens during rainy season. Perhaps, this problem has no solution. If the level of the road is raised the height of the flyover will be reduced making it impossible for heavy vehicles to pass. Helplessly, a separate pavement only for light vehicles has been made but this is not a permanent solution. It is negligence on the part of the authorities that they did not pay any attention at time of the construction of the flyover. People demand that the problem be solved soon

Regular hearings must begin gradually in lower courts
The Covid epidemic has forced courts to adopt technology on a large scale. The lower courts of the country are also adopting this tradition of the Supreme Court, which started virtual hearing. There are 3,288 court complexes across the country, out of which the government now has released funds to build “video-conferencing cabins” in 2,506 court complexes and 1,500 additional video-conferencing licenses of High Court and district courts. But the government should also consider that cases pending in lower courts across the country cannot be dealt with online hearings only by creating “video-conferencing cabins”. To provide quick and accessible justice to the needy, regular hearings should be started gradually in the lower courts, following Covid rules, otherwise the cases will be pending in the courts.

Garbage being dumped in Shastri Nagar
Long ago, this used to be a pond around which Shastri Nagar locality existed. But having no garbage dumping site available in Narwana, the people and staff of Municipal Committee started dumping entire garbage here. Gradually, the entire site has turned into a heap of garbage. The pond has just vanished and the pungent stink from the garbage emanates throughout the day. In fact, the MC is finding itself helpless, as there is no alternative dumping site available at the moment. In the public interest, some solution should be found out soon.
