Title: Highly Contaminated water at West Mukherjee Nagar, West Parmanand Colony and Dhakka Colony since last 35days

Since last 35 days we residents of West Mukherjee Nagar are being receiving sewer contaminated water, which is extremely smelly and filled with dirt and other particles. And yes it comes in different shades and colors, the water supplied through DJB's pipeline.

I have made complaints via 1916 complaint no 0171 dated 08/10/2017 and through pgms.delhi.gov.in with grievance number [protected] dated 08/10/2017, [protected] and 20176805 dated 25/10/2017 to DJB and PWD respectively. I have personally communicated with Mr Sanjeev Verma JE, , Mr Harish Chand, EE, , Mr R K Singhal, SE of DJB, and area's MLA Mr Pankaj Pushkar many times to sensitize on the issue. I have been communicating the problem via mail right from bottom to CEO of DJB, MLA, Dy CM, CM, CVC and LG among others. But there have been no resolution. CEO forwards the mail blankly to Member(WS) and he forwards it to CE-North. LG forwards it to DJB Nodal officer, Dy CM forwards it to CEO and at one time to CM. Finally in the 'Action Taken Report' in the pgms site against the grievance number [protected], EE has written facts some of which are untrue and misguiding. Anyways, the thing is he has signed it off saying PWD isn't allowing work so now the onus lies on them.
You can clearly see how everybody here is trying to escape from their work and passing the work from one hand to the other. And who is suffering???? Definitely not them. It would have been resolved the next day if that had been the situation.

Delhi Jal Boards website says complaints logged through any means of the ones they have listed out will be resolved tentatively 24hrs. It's been more than 450hrs!!! This is 1875% more time than they have said. Around 5000 people are affected with this. The water has become a major health hazard and what is the concerned officials doing! It has now become like a time bomb, waiting to explode any moment. What is the government doing?

This problem I have come to know is pertaining in West Mukherjee Nagar, West Parmanand Colony and Dhakka Colony. I request everyone who is affected to please go to pgms.delhi.gov.in and register as many complaints as possible. Please join the Whatsapp group https://chat.whatsapp.com/AoQn9jyu1eA70GBrSqQiRk. It's not just on receiving contaminated water since 35days, but the callous and insensitive attitude of the DJB, PWD, and other government officials towards the general public. We need to take charge and get things done.

This place where we live, is our home and it will be a shame if we can't do as much as raise our voices to make its problems fall on the seemingly deaf ears. Please see the Whatsapp group as a platform to come together and discuss and coordinate. Execution has to be on ground. Request all living in these affected regions to join.

Change is in your hands, this is just a call for it.
