Early Times Report
JAMMU, Aug 30: A Delegation led by Rahul Sahai Chair PHDCCI Jammu along with Anil Sharma , Samar Dev Charak, Ashish Jain, Raj Dua, Shantnu Gupta calls on Devansh Yadav Ias Commissioner Jammu Municipal Corporation and submitted Memorandum regarding over all development of Jammu City in Jammu today .
Rahul Sahai Chair PHDCCI Jammu extended heartfelt congratulations to Devansh Yadav Ias Commissioner Jammu Municipal Corporation on his appointment as Commissioner of Jammu Municipal Corporation. PHDCCI delegation said we are confident that under your dynamic leadership, the JMC will reach new heights of success, and we wish you the very best in your endeavours.
Rahul Sahai said In light of your new role, we would like to bring to your attention several suggestions aimed at the overall development of Jammu City. We believe these initiatives will contribute significantly to the city's growth and the welfare of its residents.
Rahul Sahai Firstly proposed the introduction of a mechanism that enables households and shopkeepers to subscribe to JMC's automated waste collection services, ideally through an app-based system. This would ensure more efficient and timely waste management across the city. Additionally, he suggested the formation of a JMC Advisory Panel comprising retired engineers, chamber members, market associations, and prominent citizens. Such a panel could offer valuable insights and guidance.
PHDCCI Delegation Furthermore submitted that there is a need for a robust customer care system, which includes real-time apps and toll-free numbers to address public grievances promptly. This will greatly enhance the efficiency and responsiveness of the JMC's services. We also recommend a thorough review of the ongoing Jammu Smart City projects. Recent footpath installations, for instance, have resulted in the narrowing of streets due to inadequate planning in areas like Gandhi nagar etc . Sahai said a public session showcasing completed Smart City projects would be beneficial in ensuring transparency and accountability.
Chair Rahul Sahai said as the JMC has notified unified bye-laws under RERA guidelines, we suggest organizing an educational session to help the public better understand these guidelines, particularly those involved in land plotting. In addition, expanding e-bus routes to include areas such as Bawe Temple and the industrial zones of Kathua, Samba, Bari Brahmana, and Gangyal would greatly facilitate local employment and align with industrial operation timings.
Sahai said the ongoing Tawi Lake Project also requires urgent attention, particularly regarding the management of nallahs flowing into the river, which could lead to persistent water quality issues. To encourage compliance with sanitation and other charges, we recommend the implementation of a challan mechanism for defaulters, as non-payment and improper garbage disposal remain ongoing challenges.
Rahul Sahai also highlighted problems of Transport Nagar Jammu and said that the lack of sanitation services is a significant concern. The absence of garbage collection and drain clearing services has turned the Transport Nagar area into a dumping ground in the heart of the city. We also urge immediate action to address the rampant encroachments in Transport Nagar, where footpaths and roads are overtaken by vendors, leading to considerable disorder. Addressing these issues through an anti-encroachment drive and improving street lighting and public toilet facilities will be crucial steps toward restoring order in the Transport Nagar area.
Sahai said moreover, ensuring the functionality of street lighting across the city is of utmost importance, ideally through the use of smart lighting systems that operate automatically. The collection of waste from gardens and parks should be streamlined to prevent delays, and fogging should be conducted during the monsoon season to prevent the spread of mosquito-borne diseases like dengue.
Finally PHDCCI delegation said we bring to your attention the severe water crisis in parts of Trikuta Nagar due to outdated infrastructure. We urge the planning of a new pumping station to provide a long-term solution, particularly in the most affected areas, such as Sector 7. Additionally, in the absence of corporators, it is vital to keep residents informed about the plans for drain and road construction in their areas. Publishing these plans in local newspapers could be an effective way to ensure public awareness and engagement.
PHDCCI delegation thanked Devansh Yadav IAS Commissioner Jammu Municipal Corporation for considering suggestions and said we look forward to your positive response and said we remain confident that your leadership will bring significant improvements to our beloved city of Jammu .
