Imagine an old man, washing his clothes using the stagnated water caused by the major breach on the water supply pipe line on the road side in Sowripalayam road. Nothing more could have painted a bad and neglected picutre of the ill maintained civic amenities and networks of roads in the textile city.
Most of the roads in the city are not only narrow, but is full of cess pools and pot holes. And when it rains, water stagnation poses a perennial problem to motorists and road users in the city.
Adding woe to the existing problem is the breaches reported in major pipelines of the drinking water supply system maintained by the City Corporation, which goes unattended for long time causing wastage of precious drinking water.
Even as the onset of monsoon makes the condition roads even worse, with roads, subways and low lying areas inundated and flooded with rain water, the breaches in pipe lines in another cause for concern.
The old man using the water -logged road to wash his clothes is symbolic of the bad state of affairs and apathy of officialdom and elected representatives to renovate the roads.
Will the city corporation taken prompt action to plug breaches wherever it happens on time, preventing the loss of precious drinking water? wonders the city denizens.
