Negligence may prove fatal

An open junction box close to a transformer is posing threat to the lives of commuters in the main market of Sector-9, Ambala City. Ragpickers and animals can be seen wandering near the damaged junction box. However, it has failed to catch the attention of the electricity department. This negligence could prove fatal for someone. Is the administration waiting for a mishap? Several officials use the route on a daily basis, but they have failed to take any action. I hope the administration would take cognisance of the matter and direct the electricity department to repair the box at the earliest.

Use public money judiciously

Unproductive art work and painting on the back walls of houses along Panchkula’s Madhya Marg is akin to turning the stretch into a fool’s paradise. Clean-and-green is beauty that needs no ‘ornaments’. Public money should be spent judiciously and not on whims and fancies of political leaders. Instead priority should be given to expedite work on the proposed underpass, hanging fire for 15 years, directly linking this road from Manimajra Housing Board Chowk to Sectors 20-21 dividing road.

Public toilet in bad shape

Agents’ toilet recently inaugurated at Subhash Park, Ambala Cantt, is lying in a bad shape. There is no cleanliness and water connections have also been disconnected. The authorities must act in public interest.
