Water Problem and DJB

Water shortage in delhi is known to DJB and political bosses and is there fore not a new phenomenon.
Solution may invole long term strategy and expenditure of crores of rupees.
But baffling is that tube wells functional in almost all residential societies and even services were handed over to MCD, were functional but were made in operative just a few years ago.
Such tubewells were boosting and to some extent mitigating water shortage.
Unfortunately, some decision at policy maker level has been taken without consideration of discomfort to citizen.
Could any body throw light as to how DJB COULD BE MADE TO REALISE THEIR FOLLY.

Who is responsible ?

Poor children in Ganne, a village 45 km east of Allahabad, one of Uttar Pradesh's biggest commercial centres, are eating SILICA - LACED MUD to quell their hunger. Frail, malnourished children eating moist lumps of mud laced with silica - a raw material for glass sheats and soap - because they are not officially classified as poor and so ineligible for official help.

detailed news can be read in Hindustan Times dated 5th April,2010, as below :
" Not enough food, so children learn to eat mud "
" Will food bill help these children ? "

Who is responsible for this ? Would you like to add your valued comments ?

1,398 Acres Illegally Occupied

DDA Draws Up Its First Estimate Of Encroachment In City

In a first of its kind exercise, Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has made an estimate of how much of its land is under encroachment. The figure comes to around 1,398.53 acres, the maximum being in east zone. While unauthorised colonies have taken up the bulk of such land, slums come a distant second followed by commercial and religious encroachments.


The exercise was undertaken in November last year after The Times of India carried a report on how slums had mushroomed on DDA land valued around Rs 200 crore in posh Vasant Vihar locality and even on adjacent forest land. DDA's newly-appointed officials on special duty for land protection had undertaken the survey. The officials all of them ex-servicemen were appointed in July last year to remove encroachments on DDA land and to check the menace.
The total land under encroachment in east Delhi was 679.84 acres, of which, 545.59 acres was occupied by unauthorised colonies. The biggest chunk of land that had been illegally occupied after east Delhi was in north zone where a total of 130.06 acres was under slum clusters.
