Ghaziabad: The City’s Dirty Secret

Clogged Drains and Filthy Roads

Filth – essentially silt mixed with a huge amount of plastic and other waste – dredged from drains by excavators but left on roadsides – caked the ground, turning one of Indirapuram’s busiest spots into a public hygiene nightmare. The situation has highlighted the civic body’s failure to clean the drains. Excavators were used to dredge the drains, but the waste was left behind on the roadsides.

  • The drains were not cleaned before the arrival of the monsoon.
  • The waste left behind caused the ground to become caked, creating a public hygiene nightmare.
  • The situation highlighted the civic body’s failure to clean the drains.

In Orange County, residents have been complaining about the lack of cleanliness. Anil Jain, a resident, said, “As far as Kala Patthar Road is concerned, they call it Agrasen Marg. Only if changing the name would have changed the condition of the road. Near Bikaner Hotel and at many places on the stretch until a few days ago, they dug out mounds of sludge, but it seems they forgot to transfer it. As a result, the sludge, after the rain, went back to the same drain from where it was extracted, choking it further.”

  • Residents are paying the price for the civic body’s failure to clean the drains.
  • The GMC has been increasing taxes, while residents are suffering.
  • A Case Study of Ghaziabad

    Kala Patthar Road in Indirapuram is a case study of Ghaziabad’s civic problems. Nirmalendu Mishra, a resident of Gaur Green Society, said, “I think Kala Patthar Road is a case study for the entire Ghaziabad. You name one civic problem, and you will encounter it here—choked and uncovered drains, encroachment, illegal parking, flooding of roads—you just name it.”

    • Encroachment
    • Illegal parking
    • Flooding of roads

    Radhey Shyam Tyagi, councillor of ward number 57, admitted that the area was in a complete mess. “As an elected public representative, I am answerable, and there is no getting over the fact that our preparations for the monsoon were unsatisfactory. I will take up the matter with the GMC officials and the mayor and will demand that sludge be removed, drains be covered, and order be restored.”

    A Review of the Drain Cleaning Work

    Mayor Sunita Dayal said that the drain cleaning work will be reviewed, and contractors who have not done their job properly will be blacklisted. “There are 109 major drains, 335 mid-size drains, and 635 small drains, many of which pass through heavily inhabited colonies. The practical problem is where to dump tonnes of sludge, as we know the waste-to-energy plant in Galand has proved to be a non-starter, and the corporation has no place of its own to scientifically dispose of it.”
