BSP MPs meet UT Administrator

The demand for regularizing the construction at Deep Complex has been raised for many years. The residents of the Deep Complex area were entitled to vote in the elections for the Municipal Corporation,but the civic body is not authorised to provide any facilities in the area. Water is supplied through tankers. Infrastructure like roads and the sewerage system cannot be provided to the residents. Lately,local leaders have demanded that while the process for regularisation is being completed,the basic amenities should be provided to the people of the area.

Area councillor Jannat Jahan had met Patil during a public hearing session during which he directed the officials to provide basic amenities like drinking water and a working sewerage system to the area. These are,however,yet to be given.

The leaders took up the issue of compensation for the residents of Mauli Jagran who had suffered from diarrhoea. There had been several deaths in the area and a large number of residents were detected with the disease.

The delegation further demanded that the need based changes in houses made by the Chandigarh Housing Board be regularized. The residents of these houses have been holding protests and demonstrations over the issue for the past few months.
