12 . PROPOSALS :

12.1 PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

12.1.1Storm-Water Drain Widening and Removal of Encroachments

Problems:

 Heavy rain leads to choking of the Nala and flooding

 Originally the Nala width was 20 feet but over the years it
has narrowed down to 10 feet and at some places it is even
narrower.
 Encroachments on the nala causing overflowing
 As per the Cantonment Board Act all nalas should be open.
But in gross violation of the rules the nala is covered and
the space is being used for parking in Vijayangar colony,
thus no regular cleaning.

Proposals:

 Widening of the nalas up to 20’ ensure free flow of storm

water and prevention from overflowing during rainy
seasons
 Restoration of the nala removal of the covered nalas in the vijay nagar colony as per
Cantonment Board Act
 Cleaning maintenance and repair of all the open and closed nalas
 Providing mesh along the retaining wall of the nala
 Removal of encroachments by the people along nalas to ensure free flow of storm
water
