Key Questions Answered
Villagers in the Shahabad-Kelwada Panchayat Samiti area face irregular sanitation systems where choked drains cause dirty water, mud, and foul odors to spill onto public paths. This lack of cleaning increases mosquito populations and disease risks, while overflowing garbage bins and muddy roads create severe hazards for children, the elderly, and motorists.
According to Development Officer Ramvilas Meena, sanitation problems persist because tenders for the sanitation systems have not yet been finalized in several panchayats of the Shahabad-Kelwada Panchayat Samiti area.
Development Officer Ramvilas Meena stated that in panchayats where tender processes have been completed and work assigned to contractors, notices will be issued and rule-based action will be taken if they fail to perform regular cleaning.
