Kalimpong,
June 4
Once
again drinking water scarcity has struck Kalimpong town. The distribution
system not met by the PHE department has troubled the locals at the most. At
present the price of water has gone high that the people having the money has
not been able to purchase it.
As per
the information of the engineer Anil Chettri the locals are expected to get
drinking water only by June 6. He also said that after the meeting with the
municipality earlier, they had decided to dispense water in two days of
intervals, but due to continue rainfall has triggered landslide that has
damaged the water pipes of the Newra and the Dhaula water source. “We have been
giving water to the hospital and to the locals the other day” he said and added
that the hospital needs about 1 lacs gallon where the public requires 8 lacs
gallon of water. He also informed about the good news that the water has
started coming at the Delo reserve but will take little time to fill it up. On
Tuesday the water will be distributed to hospital and on Wednesday for the
general public he added. The people of Kalimpong are thirsty but the problem
seems to remain unending.Tags: LOCAL
