Majid Hussain Raises Concerns Over Incomplete Nala Desilting
Speaking to the media, Majid Hussain stated that the entire issue of incomplete desilting was brought to the notice of the Golconda Zone Commissioner during the inspection.
He said it was surprising that the monsoon season was already underway, but GHMC had still not completed desilting operations.
According to him, in several places, silt removed from inside the nalas had been left on the sides because GHMC had not yet provided contractors with designated dumping locations. As a result, contractors allegedly dumped the silt within the nala areas themselves.
Majid Hussain claimed that due to rainfall, the same silt was being washed back into the nalas, which could create difficulties for residents.
AIMIM MLA Says Two Major Rains Already Caused Flood-Like Situation
Majid Hussain said the monsoon had already started and that two major spells of rain had occurred.
He stated that people had witnessed a flood-like situation in several parts of the city during these rains.
According to him, this situation was occurring because GHMC had been “completely unsuccessful” this year in carrying out desilting of nalas, water ways, and cleaning storm water drains where work remained pending.
Commissioner Assures Completion of Pending Works
Majid Hussain said that a detailed inspection was conducted along with the Commissioner, who assured the delegation that all pending works would be taken up immediately.
