HYDERABAD: As part of its monsoon motion plan for this yr, the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) has drawn up a host of actions that it will adopt, to take on emergency scenarios.

As many as 79 Instant Repair Teams (IRT) comprising two labours armed with a small vehicle and building subject material (together with cement and sand) shall be deployed to primarily absorb small maintenance equivalent to filling of pot holes, repairing of footpaths, kerbs, central medians and replacing manhole covers.
“The 2nd kind of crew will be the mini mobile monsoon emergency crew that will contain four staffers with one vehicle and all vital apparatus equivalent to tree cutter, pump, crowbars, axe, bowls and so on. The civic body will deploy 102 such groups inside of its limits,” mentioned an professional.
Further, there’ll be 38 mobile monsoon emergency groups consisting and central emergency groups — present round the clock — except for static labour groups that’ll solely attend to water stagnation by way of taking away blockages brought about because of plastic covers and other waste subject material.
The the town making plans department, officials mentioned, is figuring out structures that have been served with notices for being structurally unfit and taking away the names of the ones that have been renovated. “Total 996 dilapidated buildings have been recognized; 667 structures have been demolished in the closing 3 years,” mentioned a the town making plans professional.
