Srinagar,
Residents of Almurshid Colony Chadoora have urged on the PDD higher authorities to act against the field staff who have shown laxity in services.
Local residents said that some staff members are doubling up as traffic personnel. They said that staff deployed for duties at the Almurshid colony instead of attending to their work are seen regulating the traffic at the main market.
Local residents said that some PDD staff direct people how to park their vehicles and are mostly seen in the market during office timing. They have urged on the PDD to ensure regular power supply and attend to the work of hanging wires in the colony. A local resident said that the authorities should ensure that the faults are repaired in time to avoid the daily power cuts.
Residents said that Colony is subjected to power cuts even for the whole day and have also sought that the copies of the bills are properly delivered and the power infrastructure was properly maintained.
The residents said that the issue needs to be particularly addressed in the wake of the work for the laying of the transmission line for the upcoming degree college in the area to avoid any untoward incident. They have further said that there was a requirement for laying a proper power infrastructure also in view of the plans to construct a bus stand in the area.
When contacted PDD executive engineer, Mohammad Hussain, said that the matter would be looked into.
