Anil Prakash Ranotra, President, Sector 51 RWA says, “We have been following up with the Noida Authority to resolve the issue of sanitation in our sector. Sanitation workers collect the dry leaves in the gap of three to four days, while they should be collected on a daily basis. The Health Department of Noida Authority should take action on the contractors for the poor maintenance in the sector.”

Sanjeev Kumar, RWA General Secretary says, “I can say that our sector is considered as a dumping yard. The garbage and dry leaves are not collected by the contractors. The contractors should remove the garbage on a  daily basis.”

Atul Mittal, a resident says, “Our sector has been regularly facing the issue of sanitation. The drains are not clean. Earlier, the sanitation workers were on strike. We are worried after this incident. Hopefully, no one was injured and the fire was extinguished on time.”
