The municipal authorities need to give more focus on better drainage system and maintaining clean and healthy environment in the town on daily basis as more visitors and tourists arrive for various purposes.
Nagaland Post had earlier published a report along with photos of seepage from a side drain spilling on to Nyamo Lotha (NL) Road, which was not only an eye sore but also emitting foul smell.
Business owners had said that the Dimapur Municipal Council (DMC) responded by cleaning the spot.
However, few weeks later, dirty water spilled over from the side drain to NL Road at the same spot.
The business owners in NL Road area said there must be blockage inside the drain, which was why there was leakage on the surface even on a non-rainy day. They alleged that DMC rarely checked inside the drain for cleaning and requested the authorities to focus on cleaning in and out in order to keep the area clean.
