All the drains of Bhopal will be cleaned before the monsoon
Minister Mr. Sarang informed that this time the weather department has predicted that monsoon will enter Bhopal a week earlier. In view of this, a massive campaign has been started for cleaning all the drains of Bhopal city. He said that every year the Municipal Corporation runs a cleaning campaign before the monsoon. Minister Mr. Sarang directed that this work should be started in advance. This will ensure that the cleaning work is completed on time and waterlogging situation will not arise in future.
Minister Shri Sarang emphasized on public awareness and waste management
Minister Shri Sarang said that proper cleaning of drains will be ensured through machines and along with this it will also be ensured that the residents of the areas where drains are located nearby should be instructed not to throw garbage in the drains. A public awareness campaign will also be run in this direction, so that the citizens can be made aware of the importance of maintaining cleanliness of drains. He said that waste materials like polythene block the flow of water in drains. This leads to waterlogging and overflow. For this, dump stations will also be built near the drains for garbage disposal, so that the garbage does not go directly into the drains.
