A picture is worth a thousand words, it is said. Well, not if it’s photoshopped and tries to substitute work instead of just words.
A Delhi high court bench spotted doctored photographs of roads and pavements in Dwarka wiped digitally cleaned by the agencies to claim they had acted on complaints by residents about poor civic facilities in the sub-city. The photographs were submitted before a bench of Justice BD Ahmed and Justice Siddharth Mridul by the South Delhi Municipal Corporation and the DDA.
“This is photoshopped. When it comes to technology, I am a novice, but even I can say it is photoshop. Somebody has tried to brush this up,” the bench remarked.
Caught red-handed, the counsel representing the SDMC and DDA quickly scrambled a defence, saying there was no reason for them to smudge the details as they were working to clean up the areas on their own.
Law student and Dwarka resident Ebbani Aggarwal, who had filed the PIL seeking a direction to the civic agencies to clean up the area, told the bench that some work has been done but it was not as clean as the photos show.
Aggarwal had approached the court, saying the markets, roads, footpaths and open vacant land and other places in Dwarka ware full of filth, solid waste and construction material. In her petition, Aggarwal had said that the sorry state of affairs was a result of tussle between the south body and the DDA.
Apart from finishing the work before September 30, the next date of hearing, the court directed the agencies to submit fresh photographs.

But the basic promises made during elections aren't being implemented.
Five years are not required to work on basic amenities like good roads, sanitation, street lights etc.
My message to current set of politicians Act now or perish in next election...

Clean-up of Dwarka by civic agencies not upto mark: HC
The Delhi High Court today observed that while the civic agencies have done some work towards cleaning up Dwarka here, it is "not upto the mark" and questioned "why can't you get self-galvanised". "You have only done cosmetic work. You have done something, but that is not good enough. It is not upto the mark. Why can't you get self-galvanised? Extend your operations further than the court orders," a bench of justices Badar Durrez Ahmed and Siddharth Mridul. The court also directed South Delhi
The Delhi High Court today observed that while the civic agencies have done some work towards cleaning up Dwarka here, it is "not upto the mark" and questioned "why can't you get self-galvanised".
"You have only done cosmetic work. You have done something, but that is not good enough. It is not upto the mark. Why can't you get self-galvanised? Extend your operations further than the court orders," a bench of justices Badar Durrez Ahmed and Siddharth Mridul.
The court also directed South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) and the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) who have been entrusted with the job of cleaning up the sub-city on the plea of Ebbani Aggarwal, a law student and resident of Dwarka, to file pictures of those sites which are yet to be completely cleaned of rubble and garbage.
It also directed SDMC to inform the standing counsel for Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) to be present on next date of hearing, after three weeks.
DMRC's presence was sought after Ebbani contended that a metro parking lot, managed by the corporation, was inaccessible.
During the day's proceedings, the court perused the fresh pictures submitted by SDMC, after it and DDA were pulled up on the last date for filing photo-shopped pictures, and observed that while some areas of Dwarka look better, a lot still needs to be done.
It also advised fining those residents of the area who indulge in littering, after the civic body said people living there litter the area.
The court also suggested that SDMC should provide a garbage disposal system for the residents of Dwarka and then declare that there will be zero tolerance towards littering.
Ebbani opposed SDMC's claims of having completely cleaned up some areas of Dwarka and said that in some places rubble is being dumped behind walls and added that she will be filing pictures of the same in a few days.

Have the PMO is aware of this MSWHR 2000-2013 and its benefit. If so please provide the concerned officer in PMO. As current PM Shri. Narendra Modi vision on CLEAN INDIA repeated even on 15th Aug 2014 speech.
As per records, have PMO aware that Delhi;s Urband Development Depart of NCT Delhi holds the key role in notification of Sanitation Bye-law passed by SDMC ? This is intentionally delayed by Dept of Urban for Last One Year.
Have PMO taken up this matter with Delhi Urban Development Department, LG, CS or CM? If not, will there be an officer assigned at PMO available to coordinate this pending Notification for the purpose
Have PMO taken any measure to make a Sanitation Bye-Law for entire nation where in both littering and non implementation of Sanitation standard punishable not only for Public but also for civic agencies and its staffs? If not please provide the Ministry that will be assigned to invite suggestion for such draft Sanitation Bye-Law
Please provide for the suggestion and contribution to PMO vision to CLEAN INDIA whom to contact. If so please provide complete details including email and telephone no.
As PM announced scrapping of Planning Commission, any decision to scrap the Central Pollution Control Board and other agencies which remain a mute spectator even in NCT Delhi.
As PMO and new Govt is keen on Clean Ganga and other projects, consider the basic issue of Sewers lines connected to Drain and no punitive measure or correction taken by CPCB.
Have PMO taken measure to review the Ministry of Environment the staff posted with Pollution Control Division and Ministry of Water and Sanitation ?
Please provide list of Officials at PMO handling grievances for each Ministry or Subject to be contacted by email for sending suggestions.
We hope PMO-CPIO will provide information sought and not transfer this application to multiple authority considering PMs vision in this matter.
