Early Times Report
JAMMU, Mar 18: Dr. Devansh Yadav, Commissioner, Jammu Municipal Corporation (JMC), today undertook an extensive inspection tour of Wards 26, 39, and 66, covering the areas of Top Sherkhania, Subash Nagar, Suryavanshi Nagar, Lower Roopnagar, and Muthi, to take firsthand stock of the civic issues and challenges being faced by the residents.
During the visit, Dr. Yadav interacted with local residents, who apprised him of a range of pressing concerns affecting their day-to-day lives. Prominent among these were demands for a comprehensive improvement in the drinking water supply system, immediate repair and maintenance of drainage networks to prevent waterlogging, and black-topping of dilapidated roads. Residents also emphasized the need for tiling work in inner lanes to enhance accessibility and cleanliness.
In addition, the locals raised serious concerns regarding sanitation conditions in various pockets of the locality and highlighted the issue of non-functional streetlights, which pose safety risks, especially during night hours.
Taking prompt cognizance of these issues, Dr. Yadav issued on-the-spot directions to the concerned officials to ensure swift and effective action. Health Officer, Dr. Vinod Sharma, was directed to intensify sanitation measures in the area and to carry out regular inspections, including daily monitoring of the attendance and performance of sanitary workers to ensure accountability and efficiency.
Further, officials from the Electrical Division were instructed to conduct a comprehensive survey of streetlights in the area and ensure immediate repair or replacement of all non-functional units. Directions were also issued to the engineering wings to assess the requirements for drainage repairs, road black-topping, and lane tiling works and initiate necessary action at the earliest.
Reaffirming the commitment of the Jammu Municipal Corporation towards improving civic amenities, Dr. Yadav assured the residents that all genuine demands would be addressed on priority and within a stipulated time frame. He emphasized that coordinated efforts among various departments of JMC would be ensured to deliver tangible results on the ground.
Dr. Yadav further stated that such field visits are part of the Corporation's ongoing efforts to directly engage with citizens, understand their concerns, and implement need-based solutions in a transparent and efficient manner.
The visit underscores the proactive and responsive approach of the Jammu Municipal Corporation in strengthening urban infrastructure and enhancing the quality of life for the citizens of Jammu.
