Overflowing drains have been a recurrent and increasingly annoying issue for those living near the Hanuman Temple in Kunwarwadi, Fateh Darwaza, Hyderabad. Despite multiple complaints from surrounding people, this situation has lasted for a week. Their complaints appear to have gone unheeded, placing them in a precarious predicament.
The cause of the problem is drainage systems that are unable to handle severe rains. When it rains, the drains get overwhelmed, causing overflow into the streets. This sluggish, polluted water causes substantial trouble for the locals, who are forced to seek alternate routes to avoid getting filth on their clothes.
Residents in the area have expressed their dissatisfaction, emphasizing the cyclical nature of the situation. The Hyderabad Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (HMWSSB) dispatches employees to desilt the drains on a regular basis, offering temporary respite. This reprieve, however, is fleeting, as the problem reappears with the following round of rain.
Overflowing sewers have very serious effects for anyone attempting to enter the adjoining mosque. The unsanitary water overflowing onto the streets creates a disturbing scenario for people on their way to pray, emphasizing the authorities’ apparent failure to solve the matter swiftly.
The problem has worsened as a result of the potential health risks linked with stagnant, polluted water. In such unsanitary conditions, residents fear the spread of illnesses such as malaria or dengue. Their fears are justified, given the breeding ground that stagnant water offers for disease-carrying mosquitos.
In light of these difficulties, local residents are pleading with authorities to address and remedy the problem. Overflowing drains not only disturb everyday living, but also pose health dangers, necessitating a quick and efficient remedy.
