Jaswant Nagar, Hardial Nagar getting polluted water; no action takenAvneet KaurJalandhar, November 19Residents of Jaswant Nagar and Hardial Nagar that falls in Ward 21 and 22, respectively, are irked over the ignorant attitude of the Municipal Corporation (MC) as they have been getting contaminated water supply for over a month now. The residents alleged that they were fearing leakage in the pipeline due to which sewer water had been mixed with potable water, which was posing a threat to their health. Balwinder Singh, president of the All India Ex-Paramilitary Forces and a resident of the area, said it had been over 30 days that they were receiving contaminated water supply. However, MC Commissioner Diprava Lakra said he would look into the matter and check where the fault lies as well the quality of water. He promised to solve the problem at the earliest and said the MC team would be sent to the area tomorrow.
