DIBRUGARH, Aug 14: The Dibrugarh district administration has instructed NF Railway authorities to construct a drain along the newly laid railway track from Banipur to Rojabheta to ensure a hassle-free passage of water of the area. The NF Railway authorities did assure the district administration of complying with the instruction.
Announcing this at the Community Liaison Group (CLG) meeting held here on August 12, Dibrugarh Deputy Commissioner Gyanendra Dev Tripathy said that the people of the area would get relief of rain-fed flood when the drain is completed. He further told the citizens that the district administration would not hesitate to take stern action against erring people or parties to put an end to water-logging in the town.
“Encroachment on drains or government land that caused disruption on natural flow of rain water will be cleared without serving any notice,” the DC asserted. The eviction drive will start soon in all the areas. Terming encroachment of government land and blocking of natural water ways by a section of people is a serious problem in civic life, he called upon the members of the CLG and other citizens to extend their fullest cooperation in the district administration’s bid to bring the old glory of Dibrugarh town back. He assured the members that he would take steps in streamlining the ongoing construction of the drains and footpaths at different parts of the town.
The DC also referred to the cases of a newly formed organization — Asom Jagrata Nibunowa Santha — in forcible collection of money from businessmen. Tripathy said the police has been duly instructed to take action. He also asked the businessmen not to accede to such demands.
Drawing attention to the earlier instruction of the administration that all private lodges and hostels be registered with the administration and regular reports of those taking shelter there should be furnished, the DC has stated that such instructions are being ignored. This has far-reaching implications in view of the present security situation. He called upon all owners of private lodges and hostels to register themselves so as to avoid the risk of their lodges being closed down by the authorities.
IGP (designate) Dr LR Bishnoi was also present at the meeting. He called upon the policemen to keep the humanitarian aspect in mind while dealing with cases. At the same time, he appealed to the public to actively coordinate with the authorities. He stated that police-public ratio in the state is such that without public cooperation, it is difficult for the police to discharge duty.
Dibrugarh SP Abhijit Borah said most of the three-wheelers plying in Dibrugarh town are either without registration and permission or running on an unpermitted road. Strict instructions have been issued to the traffic police department to crack down on such violators of law. This, he hopes, will bring some discipline in the roads.
