💨 Abstract

Delhi Minister Parvesh Verma has directed the PWD department to ensure that silt removed from drains is cleared within 24 hours. The PWD has set a deadline for desilting all stormwater drains by May-end before monsoon. Contractors will now have to remove debris within 24 hours, and their payment will depend on drain functionality, not debris quantity. The city is divided into 35 zones for desilting work.
