On Saturday, Parvesh Verma, the Public Works Department (PWD) minister of Delhi, inspected critical stretches in south Delhi to evaluate the city's preparedness for waterlogging as the monsoon season approaches. The inspection was part of the 'Government on Wheels' initiative, where Verma, accompanied by senior officials, traveled along major corridors such as Moolchand crossing and AIIMS crossing, as well as several underpasses identified as potential trouble spots. During the review, Verma assessed the progress of desilting efforts, drainage systems, and overall road conditions. He noted instances of incomplete cleaning and potential choke points, directing officials to take immediate corrective actions. Verma highlighted the importance of addressing these issues proactively, stating that even minor blockages could lead to significant disruptions during heavy rainfall. The minister emphasized that coordination among various departments is essential to ensure that all areas remain operational during peak rainfall periods. Timely execution of maintenance works will be critical in the weeks leading up to the monsoon.
