Due to lack of drainage, the water of the overflowing drain is flowing in the police station square. Due to the accumulation of water for months, mosquitoes are growing in it, due to which the residents of Batauli are worried.
The stagnant water for months has become breeding ground for virulent mosquitoes, threatening the spread of malaria and other diseases. Along with the construction of the road on National Highway 43, the drain was also to be constructed. The contract company TBCL also got the drain constructed after the construction of the road. .
Toilets, bathrooms and dirty water pipes of many houses are connected in this stretch of 300 meters. This 300 meters stretch of drain started rotting after being filled with water, due to which mosquitoes flourished. Water started flowing in the Chowk due to which the stench is spreading.
Every day a vegetable market is held where the water is flowing. People from Batauli and many nearby villages come here to buy vegetables. They are troubled by the stench and mosquitoes. Due to this there is a danger of spreading many diseases.
The officials of the National Highway and the consultant company are not at the work site at the time of construction. The contractors complete the work as per their wish. National Highway 43 is in a bad condition due to shoddy and non-standard work. Many places on the road have turned into black spots. Everyday people are losing their lives in accidents and getting injured. But instead of removing the deficiencies, the contractors, the officers of the National Highways and the consultants are trying to shirk their duty by somehow completing the work.
