Samvad Sutra, Keredari (Hazaribagh). Deputy Chief America Mahato has taken a commendable initiative to get rid of the problem of encroachment and filth in Keredari block. For the last one week, he has been engaged in a campaign to free the village streets and localities from encroachment in all the panchayats of the block. While giving information about this campaign to the people of the block earlier, he had appealed for cooperation.
Started the campaign from our Panchayat
Deputy Chief America Mahato has started this health and cleanliness campaign from his own Panchayat Keredari. For the last two days, at his personal expense, he got a JCB machine installed to remove encroachment in the Panchayat area. With the help of the villagers, bulldozers were used in those streets and neighborhoods where the roads had become very narrow due to encroachment over the years.
Encroachment removed from many important places
Under the campaign, many other streets and localities including Keredari Bel Chowk to Bazaar Tand, the road leading to Keredari crematorium, near the mosque in Muslim Mohalla were made encroachment free. With the removal of encroachment, not only have the roads been widened, but traffic has also become easier. Villagers say that this will also facilitate the movement of ambulances and other vehicles in case of emergency.
Initiatives regarding cleanliness and health also
Along with removing encroachment, keeping cleanliness in mind, a water drain (drain/pit) was also dug next to some houses. A water well was constructed near the house of Rajdev Singh, Ramnath Soni and Tahal Soni, which will provide relief from the problem of water logging and filth.
Villagers and dignitaries appreciated
Dozens of Panchayat dignitaries and villagers congratulated Deputy Chief America Mahato on this initiative. People said that for the first time in the Panchayat, a public representative has taken the issues like cleanliness and encroachment seriously and has himself come forward and worked. This will inspire other Panchayats also.
A large number of people were present in the campaign
Dozens of dignitaries including Gulab Mahato, Ramdhani Mahato, Budhan Mahato, Kitty Mahato, Sitaram Singh, Biru Singh, Saroj Singh, Umesh Singh, Dilip Singh, Basant Yadav, Rahmat Ansari, Parvez Alam, Haji Qayyum Ansari, Karu Paswan, Gautam Kumar, Prayag Rana, Dwarika Mahato were present on the occasion. The villagers expressed hope that this campaign will continue further and the entire block will become encroachment free.
