Rohan Sehgal, Ward No. 26 councillor, said the demand of streetlights in his ward has been lying pending for a long time. There are only 10 safai karamcharis in his ward which is half the required strength of 20, he said. The councillors have been raising the issue of unequal distribution of safai karamcharis in 80 wards of the city for the past two years, ever since the Congress took charge of the civic body. He also raised the issue of non-lifting of waste at Model Town garbage dump.

Sarabjit Kaur, councillor of Ward No. 25, said patchwork in her ward has been lying pending for long.
