Kolkata: Like darkness down on Wednesday afternoon and began to rain again, residents who lived between Ruby and Panchasayar were horrified.
With all belts flooded since bathing on Monday, the prospect of more rain means adding misery.
Nayabad has been under the waters of the knee since Monday without signs of recurrence even after two relatively dry days.
Associate consultant TCS Sovanlal Das has not been able to step out to work since the weekend.
On Tuesday, he could not even work from home because there was no power or internet connection at home.
TimesviewConstruction on what used to be a wetland and rice fields may be responsible for regular floods that we see promising plots in the east of East Metropolitan Bypass.
We just got out of the exit zone used to pick up excess rain by just building and staying in this zone.
Some steps, such as having more pumps to spend flood water, can help temporarily.
But long-term solutions may be difficult.
“Stagnant water starts smell.
Dirty water from the waste line has been mixed with water standing.
Until now, our water tank is a few centimeters above the surface of the water.
If it rains again, the tank will be submerged.
After that, even get water to drink and use other.
will be a challenge, “said Das.
In the nearby Panchasayar, among those stranded at home is the Paritosh Bose KMC Paritosh Bose.
“Being a civilian employee in the department that provides important services, it’s painful and embarrassing so you can’t get out for three days,” Bose said.
One of the worst affected areas is the main road of Mukundapur which leads to the Rabindranath Tagore Heart Sciences Institute to Em Bypass.
“The sharp mantra on Wednesday has added to our misery.
I don’t know when the situation will increase,” said Narayana Health Region Director (East) R Venkatesh.
The city planner said the situation was the fall of charging ponds and wetlands in the belt, unplanned development and inadequate focus on infrastructure.
According to an official of the KMC sewerage department, let the underground drainage, most of these areas even lack surface channels.
“Water flows down and finds alar land and stagnant.
There is no drainage network along this belt,” said a KMC official.
