Dear Sir.

Reg: Eradication of Corruption & Inefficiency - Enforcement of 20 point road inspection report.

Dear Sir,

Please refer several letters written to you earlier on the subject. It is indeed a surprise that an officer of your caliber is ignoring such an extremely important issue. As a result of non-enforcement of generation of regular road inspection report on defined parameters the CORRUPTION & INEFFICINCY is increasing day-by-day. We are not able to understand what is preventing you to take required action. See ample number of examples showing:

(i)             Long ramps on road – who allowed such ramps to come up encroaching on road space is a matter of concern. Is it rampant corruption or extreme carelessness by DDA staff?
(ii)            Examples of encroachment on footpath – This prima facie seems to be a direct case of open CORUPTION exhibited by DDA staff in Dwarka?
(iii)           Potholes on new road. Despite our repeated reference there is a nude dance of corruption in Dwarka where new roads don't stay even for one year.
(iv)          Iron Grill in front of Zebra crossing. How can your learned engineers do this foolishness?
(v)           Advertisement Board on footpath – This is a case of shame for DDA engineers – for what consideration they have kept their eyes closed against such blockage on footpath causing high inconvenience to padestrians.
Above are not isolated examples but are existing on every road in Dwarka. 

Despite having adequate staff and heading DDA Dwarka Project Office you have been instrumental in avoiding creation of such inspection reports. You know that in the absence of a regular road inspection report being created by staff above anamolies will keep on happening because as per DDA official record everything is fine & perfect.

We have written many letters earlier as well highlighting above issues seeking your co-operation to address the problems but not getting a response. We, hereby, once again adavise you to issue immediate instruction for preparation of Regular Road Inspection Report by the field staff to bring on record all sorts of inefficiency & Corruption apparently visible on roads.

We eagrly await your response.

Please acknowledge. Thanks
