The Vice President of Mahasamund Municipality, along with Municipal Officer Ashok Salame, inspected the Atal Awas, water tank, and community center located in Nayapara. During the inspection, the Vice President gave necessary instructions. The inspection team included BJP city mandal president Mahendra Sika, councilors Sita Dondekar, Chandrashekhar Beldar, Piyush Sahu, Makhan Patel, and BJP leaders Hanish Bagga and Gaurav Rathi. The team examined the raw drains on both sides of Road Ward No. 6 on Sorid Road, noting the need for a large, concrete drain, approximately 200 meters long and 2 meters wide.
They observed that the drains are crucial for water drainage from the nursery area. The inspection of Atal Awas revealed that garbage was accumulating in the streets, causing a foul smell. CMO Salame was instructed to ensure a thorough cleaning of Atal Awas and to consider establishing a garden or open gym in the vacant areas within the complex. The Vice President also appealed to the residents of Atal Awas to maintain cleanliness, assuring them that the municipality was taking care of the cleaning of the garbage.
Residents were reminded that maintaining cleanliness in their surroundings was their responsibility. During the inspection, a woman from Atal Awas submitted an application regarding a full septic tank, requesting its cleaning. Following this, the Nayapara water tank was inspected. It was noted that the tank had not been cleaned for approximately 5-6 years, and tall grass had grown around it. The water tank employees were instructed to clean it within a week, and CMO Salame was directed to prioritize the cleaning of the water tank, emphasizing the importance of cleaning all tanks in the city, as the public uses this water for drinking. The Vice President also suggested to the CMO that the Nayapara community center, which has been closed for about 7-8 years and previously housed a primary health center, should be cleaned and put to use. He proposed that the community center could be used for municipal tasks related to the Nayapara area, such as property tax and water bill collection, birth and death certificate applications, ration card and pension-related work, thus making the building useful. The building’s deterioration due to lack of maintenance was noted, and the need for its upkeep was emphasized.
The CMO also inspected the Sant Ravidas Garden. It was found that the underground pipeline in the garden was damaged, and the lighting system was also poor. The statue of Sant Ravidas also required painting. The CMO was requested to address all the shortcomings in the garden quickly, as it is the only garden available for the residents of Nayapara. The Vice President urged the officer to ensure that all the issues identified during the inspection were addressed immediately.
