Pune Municipal Corporation Takes Swift Action Against Mosquito Breeding Amidst Dengue Alert
The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has taken decisive action to combat the potential rise in dengue cases and water-borne diseases by issuing over 440 notices to various establishments and individuals. These notices were served for allowing mosquitoes to breed in accumulated water on their premises. In response to the situation, PMC has intensified its efforts, forming inspection squads to conduct drives throughout the city. The goal is to identify and address spots that are susceptible to water accumulation and prevent the spread of diseases. PMC has also issued advisories to citizens and commercial establishments, stressing the importance of preventing water accumulation and maintaining cleanliness to curb mosquito breeding.
To further tackle the issue, the civic administration has issued instructions to commercial establishments, schools, colleges, and housing societies to conduct regular cleaning of their water storage tanks. Additionally, they have urged citizens to report any overflowing drainage systems or non-functional ones to their local civic wards. As an added precaution, people are encouraged to boil water supplied by the civic administration before consumption. Furthermore, construction sites with workers' camps have been directed to use water supplied by the PMC to meet their drinking water needs. While citizens appreciate these measures, some have expressed concern about water accumulation in common civic spaces, such as roadside open spaces and gardens, suggesting that the civic administration should take corrective action to clean these locations and prevent mosquito breeding effectively.
