GHMC is taking up audit of all stormwater drains in the city ahead of monsoons to prevent any untoward incident, in view of the successive deaths during recent times, of people who accidentally fell into the open drains and died.
Circlewise sketches of stormwater drains have been prepared and dispatched to the circle-level officials for inspections.
Commissioner, GHMC, has made officers of the level of Assistant Engineer or Deputy Executive Engineer responsible for inspections in each circle. They will have to identify lapses in de-silting, missing links and other aspects, and give a comprehensive report by the month-end.
