Delhi govt aims to resolve long-standing legacy issues, tackling waterlogging, traffic congestion, and pollution simultaneously
After years of neglect, the Delhi government has begun a major cleanup of Sunehri Nala to tackle persistent waterlogging, while the Barapullah Phase-III Corridor promises smoother traffic flow between South and East Delhi.
Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Tuesday inspected both projects, emphasising speed, quality, and transparency in execution.
Addressing officials at the site, the Chief Minister said, “Colonies adjoining the Sunehri Nala have faced severe waterlogging every monsoon. To address this, a total of 50,000 metric tonnes of silt is to be removed from the 1-kilometre-ong drain, out of which approximately 14,000 metric tonnes has already been cleared”
