JAMMU, July 3: Commissioner, Jammu Municipal Corporation (JMC), Dr. Devansh Yadav, today undertook an extensive tour of Ward No. 61, covering Laxmi Vihar, Tomal Colony, Anand Nagar, Bohri and adjoining localities, to assess the status of civic infrastructure, review ongoing development works and interact directly with residents to address their grievances.
During the visit, residents of Lane No. 4-A, Laxmi Vihar submitted a memorandum highlighting several long-pending civic issues, including inadequate and choked drainage, damaged internal roads, waterlogging during rainfall, irregular drinking water supply and the recurring flooding caused by the overflow at the confluence of the Muthi/Udhawala Main Nallah and the Om Nagar Nallah near the Tomal Colony Shamshan Ghat.
The Commissioner carried out a detailed inspection of the affected areas and reviewed the ongoing drainage improvement works being executed at various locations across Ward No. 61 and its adjoining areas. Emphasizing the need for timely execution and quality workmanship, Dr. Devansh Yadav directed the executing agencies to ensure that all works are completed within the stipulated time frame while strictly adhering to prescribed quality standards.
Taking serious note of the grievances raised by the residents, the Commissioner issued on-the-spot directions to the concerned officers to initiate immediate remedial measures. He instructed officials to undertake regular desilting of drains, prepare comprehensive proposals for strengthening the drainage network, expedite the repair and reconstruction of damaged roads, and formulate sustainable long-term measures to effectively mitigate flooding in the locality. He further directed the concerned officials to maintain close coordination with the respective departments for the early resolution of issues relating to drinking water supply and electricity.
Reaffirming the Jammu Municipal Corporation's commitment to responsive, transparent and citizen-centric governance, Dr. Devansh Yadav assured the residents that all genuine public concerns would be addressed on priority. He reiterated that the Corporation remains committed to strengthening civic infrastructure, enhancing public amenities and ensuring a better quality of life for the people.
