NCR: The week in tweets

Hello friends! How have you been? Some of the issues bothering residents across the National Capital Region seem to have become a regular affair in tweetdom. Fee hikes in schools and issues faced by homebuyers were very much part of the buzz this week. Residents grappling with poor power supply also voiced their concerns. Folks, let’s take a look at the week in tweets:

Residents tweeted about the tussle between private schools and parents over fee hikes. And it seems there is no end to their woes.

This resident’s tweet quite aptly captures the popular sentiment among parents who are not only grappling with the payment of hiked fees, but also trying to make both ends meet. A sorry state of affairs indeed!

Millennium City slips on sanitation index and residents are watching. Here’s a resident who has highlighted the city’s fall from rank 36 to 112 on the index. Understandably just increasing the budget wouldn’t do the trick for the city.

Faith and religion aside, loudpeakers on high volume at night are a nuisance like no other. This resident obviously had a hard time on May 4. Hope the gentleman was able to sleep peacefully!

Common sense dictates that places with high footfall of commuters need to have top notch security. But this Metro station seems to be falling short of that mark — a cause for concern for daily commuters.

Power cuts makes life tough in summers. But when there is theft of electricity in such times, it aggravates woes of those grappling with the problem. This resident has raised the issue and we hope it gets looked into right away.
