Dear Respected Sir,

Sub: Blockage in sewer lines and overflowing of sewage water through manhole chamber in HBR 5^thblock. Ward-24

This is to inform you that sewage water is overflowing thro’ manhole chamber at 19^th main, in front of house No.1282 (at intersection of 36^th cross) in HBR 5^thblock. Please note there was a blockage last week in the same sewer line, adjacent to the manhole where now it is overflowing. Bringing jetting machine the choke was cleaned. Now there is one more sewer line got choked at 18^thmain, in front of house No.1412. Therefore, we request you to kindly arrange for the super sucker/jetting machine immediately and remove the blockages at both the places and also please check the sewer pipes to the full stretch of 18^thand 19^th main to prevent any blockage in future. As the rainy season is just around the corner, there are chances of out break of epidemic diseases.

We also would like to bring to your kind notice that it has been observed the sewer pipes get clogged very often and sewage water overflows through manhole chamber and run onto the road creating foul smell and causing hardship to the residents.  

The sewer pipes 9” of size were laid long back when the number of houses in this layout were very less and since the number of houses is increased to many folds and many more sewer pipes from adjacent areas are connected to the 19^th main pipe, it is not sustaining the large volume of sewage water running in these pipes, that causes overflow. Another reason being at many places the chambers’ manhole lids are either not placed properly or damaged; and in some cases the chamber’s mouth itself got damaged. 

Hence, we request you to kindly look into the matter like replacing the broken lids, repairing the chamber’s mouth, cleaning/de-silting of sewer lines and laying of bigger size pipes at 18^thand 19^th mains to have smooth flow of water. 

Thanking you,

With warm regards
