SUBJECT : HIGHLY URGENT : Sewerage line in Uday chand Marg, Kotla Mubarakpur jammed since last so many months . ” NO ACTION “



ATTACHED ARE SOME OF THE VIDEO CLIPS O[censored]DAY CHAND MARG TAKEN ON 17/10/2009, PLS HAVE A LOOK .



I want to throw light on one of the major civic problems being faced by our colony Uday Chand Marg, Kotla Mubarakpur, Delhi 110003 .Since last several years this problem has surfaced in my area which is leading to a messy situation in the area with lots of diseases .Sewerage situation in the area is too bad that even standing in the Uday chand marg lane is very difficult .This lane is home to several diseases where currently it is very difficult to even breathe .I visited the lane yesterday 24/08/2009 and took some videos to show one of the major areas in our vicinity .



Since this place is merely 1.5 -2 kms away from Jawahar Lal Nehru stadium and Thyagraj stadium where commonwealth games are going to happen next year .

Situation in the area is so worse that old senior citizens have fallen and broken their bones in the lane due to excessive water logging and poor drainage system .We have sent several complaints in the past to Delhi Jal Board and local authorities but no one in the area is able to listen and not even a single action took place .



There is a major risk of Malaria, Cholera, Tuberculosis and Swine flu like diseases .Womens and childrens cant even walk in their own lane due to the risk of diseases .

Several people in the past have been admitted to AIIMS and Safderjung hospital due to Illness and diseases .



The sewer line in the area is choked which doesn’t allow water to flow away, thanks to poor drainage system which amounts to the trouble .We have sent several complaints and applications in the past to various authorities with no avail as such .


We are followers of congress party since last 50 years as this area is under the name of my great grandfather .With kind of faith and trust we put into the party we want justice to our woes as living in the area like Uday chand marg is like hell .Residents o[censored]day Chand Marg don’t understand why there is a discrimination against their colony when sewerage line of all other nearby areas like Arjun Nagar, Wazir Nagar and Gurudwara Road are completely changed .



This area is one of the major localities of South Delhi, within close vicinity of South extension part 1, Defence Colony, AIIMS, Jawahar Lal Nehru stadium and Asiad Village .





Even water coming in the taps is full of dirt and waste material . people are forced to drink that which leads to several deaths .Delhi Jal board has so far not taken any kind of action with several complaints in the past .I have personally been ill for last so many days due to viral fever due to sewerage .Me being a senior citizen is now experiencing all kinds of troubles at this age .Ladies and old people in the area are unable to even walk down the lane .



Our relatives cant even visit our home due to this watery mess and last week one of my friends daughter who stays in nearby house, who is married came here with her children and due to poor road and sewerage condition, her son fell down the road breaking his legs, therefore her son has to be admitted to the hospital for a broken leg case .Also some of the people in the area got admitted last week in AIIMS due to suspicion of Swine Flu like symptoms .



We are living in 21st century where India is on a roll and congress party has big role to play in that, there is no doubt about that but still these kind of sewerage and drainage problems are existing in south delhi’s affluent colonies .We are law abiding citizens and therefore demand a severe and high level inquiry into this problem so that we can live our lives peacefully without any diseases .



It is my kind hearted request to all the assigned authorities to take an urgent action to solve this problem once for all so that our faith in Congress party remains intact .



FIND ATTACHED THE RESPECTIVE PICTURES TAKEN ON 24/08/2009 .




LOOK FORWARD FOR YOUR IMMEDIATE REPLY AND ACTION .
