Bengaluru: Difficulty because the job of tunneling Namma Metro seems to never end for occupants of Shivajinagar.
On Monday night, porridge gushed home on Jalan Shivaji near the VKO School of the Government reportedly because of underground work.
Mohasin Samad, the affected population, told TOI: “We are a family of five including 58 different female members, who are in oxygen support.
Our floor has been truly flooded.
Most of the household goods, including furniture, have Damaged.
We have shifted to neighboring homes.
It is difficult to deal with this situation during a pandemic.
But we have not received the intimacy of this work from BMRCL or contractors.
“After the incident, Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) visited the place.
“The leak occurred at 11pm on Monday.
Porridge has been cleaned and needed grouting has been done.
Residents have been transferred safely.
Leaks to the surface are caused by the strata of sandy sandy soils that are not consolidated in this area,” said Public Relations officer BMRCL BL Yeshwanth Chavan.
This is the second incident in the same area in less than a week.
On Wednesday, water flows to the ground floor of a three-story building on Jalan Shivaji.
In the past too, damage to the building and the road cave had been reported during tunneling work.
Nafeesesa Khan, Social Activists, said: “These regular things occur in this area.
BMRCL must conduct surveys to identify vulnerable and weak buildings.
Most of the population in the area has a night without sleep because they are afraid of something wrong.
BMRCL Must form a committee with members of the population, contractors and engineers.
They must rehabilitate residents until the work ends.
“” BMRCL takes all the precautions.
We have identified an unsafe structure in areas where the tunnel drill machine passes.
We take all efforts To minimize the difficulty to the population.
No need to panic, “Chavan said.
