Problems every where BUT none to listen ?

Tagged as the most polluted city of the world, with falling ratio of greenery, with severe water logging during rains but with no appropriate quantity of water to drink in summers, with high power shortages, with rising population of humans, monkeys, stray dogs & vehicles, with no suitable parking anywhere and with massive traffic jams all over. 

Yes ! I am talking about our own city - Meri Delhi Meri Shaan. 

A thunder storm of 92 KMPH has disrupted everything, with no visibility of any Disaster management anywhere, even though we are in the seismic zone 4.

Hon'ble LG is really working hard BUT has no time to meet the residents.

Central Pollution Control Board is not even willing to answer the simple question that, " Is Delhi on the verge of a Respiratory / Cancerous disaster ? 

DERC calls for Public suggestions as well invites for Public Hearing but with deaf years as hue & cry of general public remains unheard & power tariff is bound to move upwards whereas the power distributors don't come under RTI or CAG.

DJB is unable to produce even that quantity of drinking water that it produced 10 years ago ( at some of its plants ) but 60% sewerage charges added in the bills with rising tariffs, makes it a profitable venture.

Yamuna - the lifeline of the city has been converted into a drain with no drop of fresh water.

Six cases of Rape & 12 cases of molestation have been registered in the city, daily, in the first four months of 2014.

The rising population of humans & vehicles has caused severe traffic jams every where but leaders with Red beacon lights in VIP areas are busy elsewhere, even though the city has been declared by WHO as the most polluted city of the world & is on the verge of a respiratory / cancerous disaster.

Problems every where but none to listen. 

None of the political outfits are able to form the Govt, but can't understand that why the Elections are not being called for in Delhi with immediate effect so that a popular elected Govt for the city could come into existence ? 

Your comments please.

Dear Mr. Vohra ji,

You always make pioneer efforts in various fields and in this context I would like to suggest that why not we seek suggestions/recommendations from our associates on the action to be taken by the present (new) govt. in various spheres which will make their respective colonies and surroundings an enviable one! Received suggestions etc. may be collated and presented by you in a proper format to the present Govt. or even route it through our Hon'ble Minister Dr. Harsh Vardhan, whom you may be knowing intimately! If you agree, I will make an attempt and send it to you from my side what is required to be done - say a wish list - in respect of our colony!

Awaiting your confirmation and with best regards and wishes,

Parking Problem ?

and also the dumped vehicles must be removed early from the Parking lot.  It will create space for more vehicles to park comfortably.  These are a few suggestions to be implemented as soon as possible in easing a bit of the parking problems.  Family should also be restricted in keeping more than one vehicle in a flat.

Storm wreaks havoc in Delhi, 9 killed : The Hindu

Disturbance because of a low pressure over western U.P.

Strong North Western winds ravaged the Capital on Friday evening at 92 kilometres per hour, killing nine people and damaging three aircraft and scores of vehicles. Twelve people were also reportedly injured. The disturbance dragged down the mercury and threw the city out of gear. The storm, accompanied by rain and lightning, which struck at 4.58 p.m., was because of a low pressure over Western Uttar Pradesh and neighbouring areas.

Power supply was badly hit in most areas due to trees and branches falling over transmission lines and consequently power plants getting tripped. Rishi Raj of Delhi Transco said that these include the Dadri-Mandola, Ballabhgarh-Bamnauli, Jhatikara-Mundaka, Bawana-Abdullapur, Bawana-Bahadurgarh, Wazirabad-Geeta Colony, Mandola-Gopalpur, Mandola-Wazirabad and Bamnauli-Rohini of Delhi Transco and Power Grid.

This also led to metro and railway services getting hit. While metro services were struck stranded for an hour, more than 100 trains were delayed.

“Some local trains were cancelled and long distance trains were delayed between thirty minutes and three hours due to power disruption. Trees have also fallen on the Rohtak, Ambala and Rewari lines. The power cable over the Ghaziabad- Delhi route has also broken,” Neeraj Sharma of Northern Railway said.

Power discoms claimed they were working to restore power supply to the city before midnight.

“There is still no power here,” said B.S. Vohra of Krishna Nagar. “A tree fell on a power line near Sankat Mochan temple and the impact ripped out power meters from walls.”

Traffic came to a standstill due to branches falling off trees. Coupled with the rush of harried metro commuters, vehicular traffic came to a standstill on most arterial roads. “I was almost blown off the metro staircase in Janakpuri,” said writer Kritika S. “I had to hold on the railings, I thought I would die.”

Worried commuters returning from office were seen flagging down vehicles for a lift. In the Central Secretariat's Shastri Bhawan, a large branch damaged three cars and glass shards fell over passers-by here and at Jharkhand Bhawan in Vasant Kunj. Police barricades that had brought massive rallies to a halt with seen strewn over New Delhi district. “My clothes are flying all over Chittaranjan Park as my maid left them on the terrace,” media professional S. Ashok wrote on a social networking site. The rain evaporated soon after the storm stopped leaving an eerie semblance of normality although the city of djinns remained a mess that will take all weekend to clean. However, water logging was reported in low lying areas.

Parking Problem !

There are lots of problems regarding parking of vehicles, movement of vehicle on the road etc. The number of vehicles is so large that it has created Parking Mafia. Also our authorities say that creating more parking space is not the solution--in that case what is the solution? No alternative infrastructure has been created. Probably the authorities will have to consider some the following seriously:

1) the new houses being built must have in-built parking facility.

2) permission to buy new vehicle must be given only after confirming the availability of parking space.

3) there may be some restriction on the entry of number of vehicles from the neighbouring states.

4) necessary infrastructure as alternative to using personal vehicle may be developed.

 

Thanking you
