Hyderabad: Malkajgiri MLA Marri Rajasekhar Reddy on Monday afternoon lodged his protest over incomplete civic work in Gautam Nagar. Alleging negligence by GHMC, he demanded officials complete the work at the earliest.
Informing that the road in the colony has been in bad shape for around six months, he added that this was causing inconvenience to colony residents and commuters. Reddy along with corporator Mekala Sunita Ramu Yadav, toured the surrounding colonies in low-lying areas including Old Mirjalguda, Srinivas Nagar, Raja Nagar, and Venkatadri Nagar which are prone to floods and waterlogging.
“Due to yesterday’s rain, sewage water entered low-lying houses and residents had to bear the foul stench. Box drain (Nala) works from Mirjalguda to Raja Srinivas Nagar are incomplete. Garbage is also not being lifted,” he said.
Expressing his disappointment, he alleged that the GHMC officers have been avoiding their duties in Malkajgiri. A press statement added that the area officers were not available in their offices for the entire day on Monday.
Before the politician registered his dissent, a few days back he visited the construction site of the road under the bridge (RUB) at Gautam Nagar along with local corporator and GHMC engineering officials, where he requested the officers to complete the work timely.
Demanding the chief minister’s intervention and a high-level review, he warned to continue the protest until authorities take necessary action.
