The open canal constructed for the drainage of rainwater passing near Pragati Nagar Society in the Manav Ashram area of Mehsana city is becoming dangerous day by day. Last night, when a cow fell into the rainwater drainage canal, local residents informed the fire department of Mehsana Municipality.
Four animals died in two days
Jayanthi Lala Ke Vania living in Pragati Nagar Society told Divya Bhaskar that animals often fall in this open canal. Four small animals fell in two days. However, since the animals were small and underweight, Babubhai Luhar and the youth living in Pragati Nagar Society got together and pulled out the animal.
Fear of falling into children-elderly canals
In the whole matter, Jayantilal told Bhaskar that animals often fall in this canal. Also there is a society in the surrounding areas. However, we are worried about a child falling into old age in this open canal during the rains. Because the canal is completely open. However, if a slab of RCC is made on this canal or safety walls on both sides of the canal, such incidents can be stopped.
The Gozari incident of Mehsana Palika Visnagar seems to have been forgotten
On August 6, 2022, i.e. last year, due to open drains and open drains in the city, 14-year-old Jiya Nai, who was riding a bicycle from school in heavy rain, went out in the continuous rain. At that time, due to two and a half inches of rain in an hour, a waterlogged situation was created in Visnagar. The family lost their daughter due to the negligence of the crumbling system. However, even now in Mehsana, if facilities like safety walls are provided on the open rain water canals, such an incident will be stopped.
