Following the recent rain, sewage and rain water flowing through a channel has overflowed and stagnated the area of vacant land. Local residents fear that if no action is taken, the situation will become worse with the coming of Northeast Monsoon.
The overflow of sewage from the channel would cause severe problems to people apart from posing a potential health hazard, said residents. The stagnant sewage-contaminated-rainwater emitted stench and the mosquito menace had increased, giving residents sleepless nights.
