MCD and Deputy Commissioner, Shadara South Zone,MCD to surround the ALIVE,WELL NOURISHED AND REGULARLY WORSHIPPED HOLLY PEEPAL TREE in accordance with the Norms prescribed by Hort.

SUB:
1. Safety of PEEPAL TREE by surrounding the TRUNK & ROOT in accordance with the Norms Prescribed by Horticulture Department.
2. Favorism/Descrimination by your engineers deputed for sewerage work of Street No. 5, East Azad Nagar, Delhi-110051.

Sir,

This is in continuation to my letter ML/PL/SOPT/7/DC-SSZ dated 27/08/09 requesting your goodself to get the HOLY PEEPAL TREE surrounded in accordance with the norms prescribed by HORTICULTURE Deptt. in order to save it from the MISCREANTS who are determined to destroy it and also who declared this particular alive, well-nourished and regularly worshipped HOLY PEEPAL TREE as dried and of no use, two months ago.

Further, please recall that the work of laying the pipeline for SEWERAGE Project of Street no. 5, East Azad Nagar, Delhi-110051 has been completed this week. In next few days, construction of road/laying the floor will start.

I wish to bring to your kind notice that the work for:

1. Constructing drains for rain water disposal has been completed for only a particular portion on both the sides of the Street no. 5.
2. Leveling of the same portion of the street has also been completed.

3. The OTHER PORTION OF THE STREET is FILLED WITH DEBRIS collected from the rest of the leveled PORTION of the street.
4. It is understood that the portion filled with DEBRIS has not been handed over to the department responsible for the construction work of flooring/road by the WATER & SEWERAGE DISPOSAL DEPARTMENT.
5. The laying of pipeline from started in the first week of June’09 the Main Raghubarpura Road and Terminated in the first week of September’09 at the other end at SATNAM ROAD.
6. The residents of the PORTION OF THE STREET NO. 5 where the work started three months before is bearing the MALPRACTICES of your office till date.

Such behavior is not expected from PUBLIC SERVANTS in a Democratic country like India and also it is very difficult to Tolerate Favourism/Discrimination by the people of a Democracy. Hence, it is prayed to your goodself to INTERVENE personally and ensure justice by :
1) Surround the Holy Peepal Tree as per prescribed norms before the flooring of Street No.5, East Azad Nagar takes place.
2)Get the remaining portion of the street leveled and also get the drainage work completed before the flooring work starts.
3)The flooring work side should start from the Raghubarpura Road i,e, in the same order of the work as pipe laying took place to avoid Favourism and Discrimination.
4)Flooring work should not start unless the Water and Sewerage Disposal Deptt.hands over the charge of entire Street No. 5 for flooring.

Looking forward to your timely justified response.

Yours Sincerely,



Mala Puri

SUB: SAFETY OF PEEPAL TREE BY WITHDRAWING THE DECISION TO SHIFT CENTRALLY LOCATED ELECTRIC POLE NO. N -781 . ( Grievance No. 691 LKP dated 18 July 2009)


Sir,

Referring to above, I am disappointed once again by Discom Krishna Nagar for their RIGID/IGNORANT attitude shown on 28.08.09 & 07.09.09 towards the facts submitted by me on various occasions since 13/07/09. The comments of Discom-Krishna Nagar TO RESOLVE THE SERIOUS ISSUE in response to my innumeral letters containing the facts are as under:
1.Bypl ( CONNECTION RELATED : Discom : -Krishna Ngr ) Says :Thu, 30 Jul 2009 02:03 PM

The pole has not been shifted it is at its original place.The request for shifting of the pole has been received from Hon'ble Minister Shri Amrinder Singh Lovely,but due to some resistance from nearby residence,the shifting work has been stopped.

2.Bypl ( CONNECTION RELATED : Discom : -Krishna Ngr ) Says :Fri, 7 Aug 2009 04:54 PM

4.Citizen Says : Fri, 21 Aug 2009 11:37 AM

PGC-IV Remarks: Letter NO. 135/8002 dt. 20.08.2009 has been sent to the complaiant and stated that M/s. BYPL have already intimated that shifting work for the pole has since been stopped, which was communicated to you vide PG Cell letter No. 7852 dt. 07.08.2009.

5.Bypl ( CONNECTION RELATED : Discom : -Krishna Ngr ) Says :Fri, 28 Aug 2009 12:00 PM

Complainant is requested to visit our Krishna Ngar O&M office at B.Y.P.L, S/ STN Building, 18-Block, Geeta Colony, KRISHNA NAGAR for any clarification or query in this regard

6.Bypl ( CONNECTION RELATED : Discom : -Krishna Ngr ) Says :Mon, 7 Sep 2009 11:31 AM

Complainant is requested to visit our Krishna Ngar O&M office at B.Y.P.L S/ STN Building, 18-Block, Geeta Colony, KRISHNA NAGAR for any clarification or query in this regard.

It is clearly observed from the above mentioned resolutions that instead of giving due consideration to the facts submitted, BYPL (Discom-Krishna Nagar) kept itself busy in manipulating the issue raised by me. Initially, Discom Krishna Nagar repeated the STATUS OF 13/07/09 till 21/08/09 and maintained “THE SHIFTING WORK HAS BEEN STOPPED” and ignored my request to WITHDRAW THEIR DECISION OF SHIFTING.

Upon realising that I have checked their intensions/manipulations and also have pointed out the same on different occassions. Discom-Krishna Nagar did not repeat the same and hence resolved in different way on 28.08.09 & 07.07.09. Though, they changed their way of resolution yet they maintained same ignorant attitude, did not change their rigid behavior and asked me to visit O&M office at 18-Block,Geeta Colony, Delhi. It means that Discom-Krishna Nagar wants to clarify verbally but not in writing.

Their reaction/behavior of BYPL in response to my letters clearly prove that intension of Discom-Krishna Nagar is not to give justice to the alive, well-nourished and regularly worshipped Holy Peepal Tree by not WITHDRAWING THEIR TWO MONTHS OLD DECISION TO SHIFT CENTRALLY LOCATED POLE No. N-781.

I hereby, once again request your goodself to advice Discom Krishna Nagar to: Either withdraw their two months old decision to shift centrally located Pole No. N-781 OR reply to the unanswered queries raised by me and justify their decision for shifting the Pole No. N-781.
In case, Discom Krishna Nagar again ignores the issue raised by me for the SAFETY OF HOLY PEEPAL TREE, I will be forced to seek the LEGAL HELP.
Looking forward to the justification.

Yours Sincerely,


Mala Puri
