Child falls in pond, Executive Officer of Municipality immediately repairs embankment

May 6: Upon receiving complaints of a child falling into a pond which lie occupying 1/3rd of the public path in Hailakandi, Executive Officer of Hailakandi Municipal Board, Tridip Roy took immediate action. The owner of the pond was not letting people of the area to fill the gap in between the pond and narrow path. This complaint is learnt to have been pending since years with space enough for an adult person to slip and fall.

Due to the initiative of Tridip Roy, the vacant space was filled immediately with earth from a nearby land (after taking permission from the owner of nearby land) and thus ensuring that no accident will take place due to this problem in future. The repairing work was done using cost effective local solutions.
