Jammu, [Date] – The residents of Christian Colony in Jammu’s Ward No-07 are sounding the alarm as they grapple with severe sanitation issues caused by clogged lanes and drains. With no intervention from local authorities, residents are left to fend for themselves in the face of overwhelming adversity.
The situation in this urban locality, near Eidgah Jammu, has reached a breaking point. Overflowing drains have created an unhealthy environment, leading to waterlogging and flooding in the area. The unsanitary conditions are not just a nuisance; they pose significant health risks as stagnant water fosters the breeding of mosquitoes, threatening to spread diseases in this densely populated community.
Residents describe the foul odor emanating from the blocked drains, expressing their frustration and anguish over the deteriorating living conditions. “We can hardly walk down our own streets due to the overflowing drains,” said a local resident. “The government seems to be waiting for us to drain in our own feces before taking any action.”
Despite the pressing need for immediate intervention, government representatives have been conspicuously absent from the scene, leaving residents to take matters into their own hands. Multiple local inhabitants came together yesterday, taking to the streets to demand urgent clearing of the obstructed lanes and drains. They are calling for not just a temporary fix but a commitment to sustainable measures that will prevent future occurrences of this distressing situation.
“The implementation of proper measures to maintain and clean our drains is crucial,” emphasized another resident. “We deserve to live in a clean and safe environment in the heart of our city.”
As the people of Christian Colony continue to endure these untenable conditions, they implore the local government to act swiftly and responsibly. Failure to address these growing concerns can no longer be tolerated as it jeopardizes the health and safety of the community.
Residents are demanding accountability from local authorities and urge the public and media to support their fight for basic sanitation and infrastructure needs in Ward No-07.
