CHANDIGARH, 09.11.26-Col. Gursewak Singh ( War Veteran), President Residents Welfare Association, MHC Sector-13 Chandigarh has written a letter to the MC Commissioner bringing to his notice inconvenience being caused to to public due to undue delay in carrying out routine works of the Municipal Corporation. He cited recent examples, one

after pruning of trees in and around neighbourhood parks, branches are not removed for days, citing scarcity of trolleys.

Second,More than 50% of garden lights in one particular park are non-functional and have not been restored even after 5 weeks of written complaints and many reminders. The concerned officials state that demand has been placed but material is not forthcoming.
Col. Singh also wrote about the contractor who left the work of Toe-walling incomplete citing labour problems.

Construction material spread all around for weeks is causing great inconvenience to residents.

While officials may be well-meaning, it is the lack of resources which causes undue delay in carrying out routine MC tasks.

It is requested that a system be put in place where adequate resources are made available to MC staff to carry out such works within a reasonable time. Strict action may also be taken against contractors who abandon work after starting it.

Your prompt action to rectify these flaws will help mitigate the suffering of the tax-paying residents of MHC.
