Monkeys rummage through waste, pose risk to motorists

Garbage dumped on the roadside under the Sanyard ward has become a cause for concern for the area residents. The waste dumped in the open attracts monkeys in the area, which poses a threat to the commuters passing through the area. There is an urgent need to identify the offenders and impose a penalty on them. Even though the MC authorities have been providing door-to-door garbage collection facility, some people have been throwing waste in the open. Subhash Thakur, Mandi

Streetlights in several city areas non-functional

Many streetlights in several areas of the city have been lying non-functional for a long time now. Despite the issue being brought to the notice of the authorities concerned several times, barely anything has been done to resolve the problem. Residents and commuters, especially pedestrians, continue to bear the brunt. The department concerned should get such streetlights replaced or repaired at the earliest.
