Heavy Rains Drench City; Narmada’s 26 Flood Gates Open

The image of Ahmedabad was dented when heavy rainfall exposed not only its infrastructure woes but also the apathy of its municipal agencies.

Even as the monsoon pounded the city with nearly 25.57mm rainfall after a gap of two days, its denizens faced a harrowing time. Low-lying areas were inundated, potholes made their way on road surfaces and incidents of cave-ins were reported.

Owing to water-logging, a 200-feet road in Lambha area caved in and a van got stuck in it near Omshantinagar. After the issue was brought to the notice of civic authorities, they tried to refill the cave-in.

Leader of the Opposition in AMC complained that a chemical factory near Memco Bridge releases effluent water in the open during Monsoon every year, resulting in water logging in surrounding areas, causing hardships to locals. “There is a risk of an epidemic. We have drawn the attention of AMC regarding this but so far the administration seems to be indifferent about the matter,” said Sharma.
