Mohali: Acting on public complaints about poor sanitation and infrastructure upkeep, the chief administrator of the Greater Mohali Area Development Authority (Gmada), Vishesh Sarangal, has directed strict enforcement of cleanliness and maintenance measures in Gmada-developed sectors.
In a recent order, Sarangal deputed junior engineer-level officers sector-wise to ensure routine inspections and monitoring of roads, green belts, and other public infrastructure. "It is GMADA's responsibility to maintain cleanliness and essential services in the sectors developed and managed by it. No leniency will be shown to those neglecting their duties," he stated.
To streamline the process, Anmol Singh Dhaliwal, additional chief administrator-2, Gmada, SAS Nagar, has been appointed as the nodal officer.
He will oversee the sanitation and infrastructure upkeep of all Gmada-developed urban estates and sectors. The deputed JEs will coordinate with sanitation service providers and submit regular reports to the nodal officer.
The chief administrator has warned of disciplinary action against staff found negligent, stressing that the order aims to bring accountability and efficiency in service delivery. "Several sectors in Mohali lie outside the municipal corporation's jurisdiction and fall under Gmada's purview.
