Most of the water drainage systems in the Chandor“Cavorim Village Panchayat areas are blocked, damaged, and poorly maintained. For years, these drains have been neglected, leading to serious sanitation concerns.
With the monsoon season approaching, timely planning and execution of repairs is essential. Simply removing mud on the surface is not a long-term solution”damaged structures, broken channels, and improper flow systems must be fully restored. Blocked drains lead to waterlogging, foul smells, and breeding of mosquitoes, increasing the risk of diseases. Proper drainage is a basic requirement under the Swachh Bharat Mission, which emphasizes cleanliness and public health.
The Village Panchayat must take responsibility for regular inspection, desilting, repair, and long-term maintenance of drainage systems. Public funds should be used effectively to ensure proper sanitation infrastructure. If immediate action is not taken, residents will face severe inconvenience and health hazards during the monsoon. Authorities must act now to repair and upgrade the drainage system for the welfare of the community.
