ఈ సమీక్ష సమావేశంలో ప్రధానంగా నాగావళి పరివాహక ప్రాంత తాగునీటి సరఫరా, పట్టణ డ్రైనేజీ పునరుద్ధరణ, మరియు డ్వాక్రా మహిళల జీవనోపాధి సదుపాయాలపై స్పష్టమైన కార్యాచరణను ఖరారు చేశారు.
Immediate Redressal for Nagavali Basin & Peri-Urban Water Security
Water distribution infrastructure remains the lifeblood of Srikakulam's urban periphery. The former MLA reviewed technical progress logs from the Public Health Engineering Department (PHED) concerning the gravity feeding lines connected to the Nagavali filtration units.
Emphasizing the historical commitments established between 2014 and 2019, representatives highlighted that no ward should experience scheduled rationing exceeding alternate-day schedules during pipe relaying maneuvers. Specific attention was directed toward wards adjoining Collectorate Road, Pathasrikakulam, and Gujarathipeta, where underground silt settlement had diminished line pressure.
“Public accountability requires regular, transparent engagement between administration and citizens without delay or bureaucratic hesitation.”
“పరిపాలనలో జవాబుదారీతనం అనేది అధికారులు మరియు ప్రజల మధ్య నిరంతర ప్రత్యక్ష సంభాషణ ద్వారానే సాధ్యమవుతుంది.”
— Smt. Gunda Lakshmi Devi, Address to Ward Delegations
