I am a resident of Ramasamy street, T.Nagar, Chennai. My neighbour is a Gujarati restauraunt called Mansukhs. His drainage gets blocked very frequently. As our house is in a slightly low lying area, the over flowing drains inundate not only outside our house but also into our house. As a result our toilets get blocked. Every now and then we complaion and workers from sewage board clear the drain. But within 3 to 4 days we face the same problem. This is becoming a health hazard also. I request permanent solution to this problem. Kindly also ensure that as a commercial establishment, the restraunt also takes necessary action to prevent drainage block

I am a resident of Mahalakshmi Street, T. Nagar. On behalf of the residents of Mahalakshmi Street I furnish the following for consideration of MSWSSB:
For the past one month we are getting dirty water thro the pipe line and the quantity supplied is below normal. When enquired a month before, we were informed that the Metro Water is attending some repair works at Venkatanarayana Road and the normalcy will be restored within a week. But even after a month the position remains the same and hence, we request the MSWSSB to attend to this.

Sir,

I am a residing at B-3, shakthi apartment, 17/20, cenotaph road, teynampet.Road is in the low lying area and we experience lot of sewage water entering in to the compound and ground floor apartments. It causes great hardship to the tenaments. Children have to cross and walk all over the sewage water with the school uniform & shoes. The main reason being, the mains get blocked/choked and the water reverses in to the apartment chambers and causing it to overflow.

Sometimes the sewage water mixes with the metro water causing big health problems like diahorea etc. Even during last week, when the pipes laying work was going on, we had the experience of sewage water overflowing in our compound.

As the Cenotaph Road is getting ready for the newly to be built fly over, the sewage water problem also cause great concern to the residents.

So we request MD/SE of CMWSSB to take quick and proper action towards the redressal of the grievance. We anticipate that this work will be clubbed with flyover work and done before the rainy season.

Appreciating you for giving the opportunity to express our grievance in the meeting.

Drainage block/over flow problem

We are residing Mangai Street, Jafferkhanpet, Chennai-600 083. Over 6 months we are facing Drainage over flow very frequently, whenever we complain to the number 044-24710131 and also we one of our place residing person gave a written complaint they said they will send the person immediately but they never did, after lot of calls also they didn’t send the person we have to call them at least 3 times in a day to remained but we did not get the proper response.

They take at least a week to clean it, whenever they came and cleaned that would be blocked on the same day or next day. It is happening till now from 6 months. I think they are not doing their work properly.

Sometimes the sewage water mixes with the metro water. Because of this many of the people in our place last week suffered by bad flue and got fever, in our street lot of children badly affected by this.

Because of bad smell and over flow of drainage water we are unable to use the toilet and bathroom. How can we live in this environment?

I Request you to kindly take quick and permanent action to prevent drainage over flow/block.
