"Bringing Metro will to Sangam Vihar will also cover people living in four Assembly constituencies namely Deoli, Sangam Vihar, Chhattarpur and Ambedkar Nagar," he further said. Ruing that Sangam Vihar is grappling with poor civic infrastructure from transport to water, former Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA Vijay Jolly, on Wednesday demanded that the Metro services should be extended to the area. "Sangam Vihar is the largest unauthorised and backward colony, which is home to nearly 10 to 15 lakh poor people, including nearby adjoining colonies. He said that he has asked the minister "in public interest" that the Metro should be connected to Sangam Vihar, which will benefit people in adjoining areas of South Delhi like Deoli village, Durga Vihar, Sainik Farms and Neb Sarai. Mohania, despite being Vice-Chairman, Delhi Jal Board has failed to lay drinking water pipelines in the area," he complained..
