Chandigarh, September 26

Residents of Sector 33-B rued that a vacant plot had turned into a dumpyard.

Irate residents said some people had been throwing garbage during late night and as a result, stench emanated from the area.

“It has been noticed that people throw garbage around 11 pm. We have tried to stop such people, but they start arguing. We request the Municipal Corporation to clean the vacant plot and keep a tab on violators,” said Kuljinder Sra, general secretary, Resident Welfare Association, Sector 33-B.

The residents said the plot was allotted to a political outfit for opening an office, but no construction has been done till date.

“Sometime ago, a political party had put up a board on this plot, which has gone missing,” said Nimit Gupta, a local resident.

The residents said open spaces in the sector were covered with wild grass, which proved safe haven for anti-social elements.
