PWD Minister’s South Delhi Inspection Orders Fixes Before Monsoon

The review triggered time-bound orders to finish desilting at known choke points.

Overview

  • Parvesh Sahib Singh, who led a Government on Wheels bus review Saturday, inspected drains, desilting and road work at known waterlogging points in South Delhi.
  • Teams covered Moolchand and AIIMS crossings, the Chattarpur Metro stretch, Nelson Mandela Marg, the Munirka flyover, Vivekanand Marg and BJ Marg, plus several underpasses.
  • Officials found drains only partly cleaned and issued deadlines to clear likely clog points.
  • The joint presence of multiple departments let crews settle overlaps on drainage, road surface repairs and upkeep on the spot.
  • Timely follow-through in the next few weeks will decide outcomes, since low underpasses can flood when silt blocks inlets and stalls traffic.
