No sanitisation in some wards, allege Jalandhar residents

Jalandhar, April 20

Residents have complained that sanitisation has not been carried out in several wards.

Balraj Thakur, chairman of the Sanitation Adhoc Committee, which is looking after the sanitisation process in every ward, said people were telling him that no one had gone to some areas in their wards for sanitisation.

“In several areas, the process has been finished with spraying pumps. There is a possibility that people didn’t get to know when the process was being carried out,” he said. He said in some of the wards, the sanitisation process was carried out with fire brigade machines and no complaint was received.

Administration continues to provide essential items

In its drive to provide essential items to people, the district administration on Monday supplied 1,02,067 litres of milk and 9,106 quintals of vegetables and fruits to them on their doorstep. Several teams of Milkfed, Mandi Board and Food and Civil Supply Department under the supervision of the Deputy Commissioner have been providing the essential items in the district. The teams of Milkfed led by general manager Rupinder Singh Sekhon have been supplying milk and other products. — TNS
