Respected Mam,
Subject: Water Supply to
Dwarka Sub-City
This
further to our meeting with The Chairman, DJB, Chief Minister of Delhi,
Shrimati Sheila Dikshit and further meetings held with your good self.
As
you are well aware that the water supply to Dwarka is very very poor and almost
on daily basis we receive umpteen numbers of calls from residents of different
Sectors of Dwarka. . The Govt planned this sub-city way back 20 years now and
taken due development charges. The basic supply of safe drinking water as per
govt own set standard not being implemented in Dwarka till date.
In
this regard we would like to draw your kind attention to our letters and two
meetings on 18th October, 2012 and 29th July, 2013. We
are sorry to inform you that despite the fact that Chief Minister of Delhi has
accepted the transfer of water supply from DDA to DJB in the meeting held on
22/12/2009, things have not moved an inch. We would like to know the action taken by DJB in this
respect and the bottlenecks specifically
related to taking over of water supply from DDA.
We
would also like to know the:
- Requirement of water for Dwarka as per estimation by DJB
- How much water is being provided to Dwarka and
- How much water is being diverted to IGI Airport.
The
most unfortunate part is that we are not getting any response from any your
officers except diverting the issue to Munak Canal.
We
therefore, call upon DJB to take over the water supply of Dwarka Sub-City from
DDA and ensure equal of water supply to Dwarka at the same rate as applicable
to rest of Delhi.
We
look forward to hearing from you at the earliest.
Thanking
you.
For and on
behalf of Dwarka Forum(Regd.)
President
