Locals in Liliya observe bandh over long-standing sewage problem
June 28, 2024
Amreli: With no resolution to the 12-year-long issue of the sewage line in Liliya Taluka, all the traders observed a bandh today. The bandh was called by the Chamber of Commerce. The locals a lso took out a rally and submitted a memorandum at the Mamlatdar office.
Twelve years ago, a sewage line was laid in Liliya Taluka, similar to those in urban areas. However, due to a lack of maintenance, this project has become a headache for the locals. The overflowing sewage in the Navli Bazar area has become a major problem for the people. Previous agitations on this issue have yielded no solution or improvement.
As a result, the Liliya Chamber of Commerce called for a bandh today, and the traders supported it by closing their shops. The bandh was lifted after assurance from MLA Savarkundla-Liliya Mahesh Kaswala, who, along with officers and the former MLA, reached the location. The work of cleaning the sewage line commenced after equipment was brought in from Amreli and Savarkundla. DeshGujarat
