The team investigated all complaints and especially observed that the narrowing and choking of dirty nullahs during the rainy season caused great nuisance to the residents. The team also inspected the site of a commercial plaza due to which the double road has been converted into a single road in a housing society. The residents also informed that due to tripping of damaged electricity transformers, power breakdowns were frequent. Cleanliness and drinking water facility was also found to be deficient and sewerage system was found in a very bad condition.
