After auto driver's death, Gurgaon civic body launches campaign to cover manholes
Under a special drive to lock and secure open manholes, the Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) has replaced damaged as well as open manholes at 319 locations across all city wards from July 12-14. The move comes against the backdrop of the death of Shailendra (27), an auto-rickshaw driver, who fell into an open manhole near Shishpal Vihar Gate 2 and drowned last week. The area was flooded after heavy rain lashed the city, and the open manhole went unnoticed. Shailendra hailed from Binoura village in Kannauj, Uttar Pradesh. His family had filed a complaint at the Sadar police station, alleging negligence by the department concerned for leaving the sewer uncovered. Police had said a case has been registered, and investigations are underway. An MCG spokesperson said the goal of covering unsecured manholes is being executed in mission mode to prevent accidents and inconvenience to residents. 'The corporation is addressing reports of damaged or open manholes within stipulated timelines. Citizens have been urged to report such issues via social media, WhatsApp, helpline numbers, the e-Samadhan portal, or the Swachhta app,' the spokesperson said. 'Prioritising public safety, the corporation has extended the campaign by three more days to ensure no manhole remains unsecured,' he added. The MCG also conducted an anti-encroachment drive at Chakkarpur in Sector 28, targeting alleged illegal roadside stalls, tin sheds, and kiosks obstructing footpaths, roads, and public markets. The drive was conducted following directives from Municipal Commissioner Pradeep Dahiya during a review meeting on Saturday. He said the new campaign aims to maintain the city's order and aesthetics: 'Roads, footpaths, and public spaces are for citizens' use. Those who persist in encroaching despite warnings will face fines and legal action.' Dahiya added that regular monitoring is underway, and residents should report encroachments promptly. 'Local residents welcomed the initiative, noting that cleared footpaths and public spaces have helped ease pedestrian movement. The drive is expected to improve traffic flow, enhance the city's appearance, and ensure better public amenities,' the spokesperson said.
