MC slammed over issues on Giaspura road

Ludhiana, January 18

As the Municipal Corporation (MC) has failed to resolve the problem of overflowing sewers on the Giaspura main road, which is also under construction, members of the Giaspura Industries Welfare Association today expressed their anger towards the civic body authorities in this regard.

At a press conference here today, the industrialists said they faced a lot of problems as the sewer system was not functioning properly in the area, while the work regarding the reconstruction of the main road was going on at a snail’s pace.

The president of the association, Jatinder Singh, said, “A lot of difficulties are being faced by industrial units. This road serves as a passage to the entire Industrial Area-C. The main sewage line of the Giaspura road was not functioning properly and was damaged for the past so many years.”

“There is a blockage in the main sewer line. We are going to conduct the cleaning of the main sewer line with a super suction machine and the problem will be resolved within the next two days,” said Ravinder Garg, MC’s Superintending Engineer (O&M). — TNS
