Updated: Fri, 12 Dec 2025 16:50 (IST) The debris from the construction of roads in Rewari has become a cause of trouble for the city’s residents. Due to accumulation of road debris at more than 55 places in the city, there are piles of garbage at various places in Rewari. Jagran Jagran Correspondent, Rewari. The debris on the roads being built for the convenience of the common people in Rewari has added to the problems of the city dwellers. Roads are being built at more than 55 locations in the city. About five hundred tons of debris from the demolished roads were dumped in various places in the city, disregarding the rules, due to which mountains of debris began to form. Remove Advertisement Just Read News As a result, not only does the city become ugly, but the negligence of those responsible is also clearly visible. The general public is encouraged to dump garbage in the open, but it is not considered appropriate to first notify the contractor about the garbage being dumped in the city. Let us tell you that recently, for the repair of the bad roads of the city, NAP issued a tender and started the work by demolishing the roads, but the concrete debris of the roads was dumped by the contractor in the city’s Copper Market, near Anaj Mandi, Sector 4, near the Container Depot, Sector 18. It is the responsibility of the city to dump. Despite this, the situation in the city has started to get worse because of the debris. There is anger among the city’s residents over this wrongly dumped rubbish. The responsible officials have also been informed. At the moment, NAP seems to have no concrete plan to remove this debris from the city. The rubbish will have to be removed by issuing a tender. If this continues, the concrete and stone debris collected in various places by the demolition of the roads will form large piles that will not be easy to clean. Later, the Municipal Council will be forced to tender for the removal of concrete and stone debris. This will not only put a revenue burden on the NP but the common man will also have to face problems. In many places, rubbish has accumulated so much that it blocks the road and makes the whole area ugly. It is noteworthy that for throwing garbage and other waste materials here and there, challans of thousands of rupees have been issued to the common people, but the contractors dump the garbage openly in the city. No action is taken against the contractor. Road debris should not be dumped in the city. Talk to NAP officials and a solution will be found soon. The conditions of the tender will also be examined. – Abhishek Meena, Deputy Commissioner Rewari
