Nagpur: Heavy rainfall on Saturday morning caused severe waterlogging in several areas of the city, including Ayodhyangar. Many homes were inundated, causing significant distress to residents. The locals, frustrated with the inadequate response from the authorities, expressed their anger by organizing a ‘Rasta Roko’ protest to draw attention to the issue.
This incident follows a recent episode where local residents, fed up with monsoon-related problems, assaulted former BJP corporator Deepak Chaudhary. According to affected residents, the area had never experienced such severe waterlogging before.
The problem began after the Nagpur Improvement Trust and Nagpur Municipal Corporation converted asphalt roads into cement concrete roads, exacerbating the water drainage issues and causing inconvenience to the citizens.
