Recently, several streets were dug up to replace electric poles, but during the work, water pipes and sewerage lines were accidentally broken in some areas. Instead of providing convenience, these mistakes have doubled the troubles for residents. In Preet Nagar's street No. 7,in Sirsa, a sewage line was broken nearly15 days ago while digging to install a new electric pole. The work stopped there, and since then, the pit has been filled with sewage water, posing risk for children and elderly people. The smell has also made life difficult for nearby residents. Despite repeated complaints, the Electricity Department has not taken any action. Sukhanpreet, Sirsa

Population of stray dogs goes up in Kaithal

The population of stray dogs has been increasing rapidly and so there is gradual increase in dog-bite cases forcing victims to rush to govt and private hospitals for treatment. Strangely, despite the stray dog menace, the government has failed to chalk out any policy to check it. All sections of the population are bitten by dogs frequently. Most of the affected people rush to government hospitals to get anti-rabies injections which is very painful. The stray dogs roam in various localities and, at times, even reach thr Mini-Secretariat. The government should formulate some policy to check the menace. Satish Seth, Kaithal

Large number of litigation pending in courts

A large number of unnecessary legal litigation cases are pending in the district courts, High Court, Supreme Court and other tribunals. The authorities, on behalf of the state government, waste time and money of the public and also cause trouble. When the workload on the courts increases, justice to citizens of the country gets delayed. All government departments, boards, corporations, offices and educational institutions of the state must be forced to follow the Central and state Acts and ensure compliance of the laws laid down by the High Courts and the Supreme Court within the stipulated time period and it should be made compulsory to respond to every legal notice of lawyers. A policy should be made which can reduce government litigation so that the citizens of the country can get cheap, accessible and quick justice. Shakti Singh, Karnal
