With the year’s Commonwealth Games in mind, various civic bodies in the city plan to initiate awareness drives and harsher anti-littering measures to ensure that citizens play their part in keeping the city clean during the mega event.
According to officials, the NDMC plans to distribute awareness pamphlets and make public announcements to inform the citizens about their duty towards cleanliness. The civic body has put up advertisements in areas under its jurisdiction asking people to keep the city clean. Like its earlier cleanliness drives, NDMC also has announced penalty for civic offenders.
The health and welfare department officials, however, admit that penal provisions are not enough to deter littering and spitting. “People usually throw garbage on roads from their cars and drive away. There should be provision to alert the traffic police so that such offenders can be caught and fined,” said Rajender Singh, Deputy Commissioner, MCD. Singh is in-charge of improving sanitation standards in all six zones of the civic body.
After the reply by Mrs. Sudha, the matter should have not focused on Shivalik. She has given the sound reasons for delay in removing malwa/plants. However, general discussion for the awareness of members may have continued. V all are members of a Forum working for better Dwarka and should not raise fingers on each other without any cogent reason.
M K GuptaMr. Puri, I am a resident of Shivalik Apartments. Yesterday I have read your mail on the cut shrubs lying on our side walk. For your information they were all cleared yesterday only. But i would like to ask you few things related to this.Is there any method by which you can prune the shrubs on the side of youe society without getting them fall on the floor. Where were u ( probably sleeping) when your society was doing the same and the cut trees and shrubs were lying for over a month in front of your society. What did you do then. Dumb them in front of the gate of the park!
Its very easy to point fingers and complain and keep blogging on this forum. Clicking photographs alone does not help. Have you followed up with the concerned MCD representatives. What was their response, have you bothered to share it with the Forum. There are many issues which we can point out but will refrain from doing it as of now. If you had so much trouble you should have contacted our societies office and spoken to a responsible person before complaining in the forum. Inspite of my repeatdly requests in the past to your management and your society guards for not allowing kabariwalas to throw entire kachra of dustbin (placed outside your society by MCD) on the road to collect plastic bags. It is still going on and none of u bothered for this.Same fate I met in Bhagalpur society and Kalka soc. Then why u hav created so much fuss for Shivalik apt only. Infact we at Shivalik take more care of our environent and cleanliness than other societies in our lane. Even for re-carpeting of the road in our lane..we ONLY took initiative, made several calls, met with authorities before the road was re-laid. So please refrain from making comments and complaints pertaining to individual societies. The complaint addressed by you is common to all soceities including yours. So its best to keep the discussions on common problems. Do feel free to come around and meet with us and we can discuss. regards, Sunil Shivalik Apartments |

I think we are all being childish and should close this matter here and work for the betterment of Dwarka as a whole
