Waste being dumped outside gram sachivalaya

The Tribune invites its readers to have their say. Please email at: haryanacity@tribunemail.com Waste being dumped outside gram sachivalayaThe area outside the gram sachivalaya and anganwadi in Kambasi village has turned into a garbage dump. The stink emanating from the garbage has made the lives of residents' hell. It's unfortunate that despite of several complaints, the authorities concerned have failed to address the issue. Is this really Swachh Bharat? Sameer Bakshi, Kambasi, AmbalaTransformer installed in middle of roadA transformer has been fixed on four poles in the middle of the main busy road, occupying a lot of prime space, which is causing a lot of inconvenience to both shopkeepers and commuters. There is a 'tussle' going on between the UHBVN and Nagar Parishad, as to who will bear the cost of its dislocation. Both departments are engaged in irrelevant correspondence which has already taken a long time. In wider public interest, the transformer must be relocated elsewhere at the earliest. Ramesh Gupta, NarwanaSC should prohibit farmers' 'rail roko' plan on Feb 18This refers to 'Farmers gear up for nationwide 'rail roko' (The Tribune, February 16). It goes without saying that the farmers are gearing up to make their four hourly 'rail roko' protest on February 18 a success by mobilising residents of villages in support of their demand, obviously raises several eyebrows more so when BKU leader Rakesh Tikait has already declared it to be a 'nationwide' phenomenon. Rail commuters are likely to be hit the most Industrial and farming activities in the adjoining areas of the three Delhi borders, have been suffering due to the continued protest since November 26 last year? So, one genuinely wishes that the Supreme Court urgently takes some holistic view of their endless protests while 'prohibiting' the proposed 'rail roko' plan in the larger national interest.
