North Delhi Mayor challenges CM to show if PWD drains desilted

With civic issues becoming a matter of slanging match between the AAP government and BJP-controlled MCD in Delhi, North Delhi Mayor Sanjeev Nayyar today challenged Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal to show if any drain of PWD has been desilted.
"The situation of water-logging in the area is due to Delhi government's ill-preparedness as the drains falling under the corporations are almost desilted and that too before the monsoon season. But most of the bigger drains which belong to PWD or Irrigation and Flood Control department are not desilted which are outfall for smaller drains," Nayyar alleged.
Several parts of Delhi have been getting waterlogged for the last few days due to rains, triggering blame game between the AAP dispensation and municipal corporations.

The North Delhi mayor today inspected Nangloi, Mundka, Bawana and Narela areas for monsoon preparedness.
"During the inspection from Nangloi till Tikri Border, none of the points out of almost 20 visited were found to be desilted. Drains were either encroached or were overflowing resulting in water stagnation," Nayyar claimed in a statement.
"During the inspection, it was found that PWD drain adjacent to Delhi Police Residential Colony and A-Block in Nangloi is not desilted at all," he alleged.
