Crumbling civic infrastructure resented

By Staff Reporter

GUWAHATI, June 16 - Castigating the State government, district administration and other departments and agencies concerned, the All Guwahati Students� Union (AGSU) today said that lack of coordination among the authorities is responsible for the State capital�s crumbling civic infrastructure.

�Tuesday�s deluge in which five persons lost their lives is a grim testimony to the inefficiency, insensitivity and lack of committed efforts on the part of the authorities. Guwahati needs much more than the periodical facelifts done ahead of a VIP visit, and the authorities need to understand this,� the AGSU said in a statement.

The AGSU alleged that while all political leaders and bureaucrats want a sprawling bungalow and a plot of land in the city, none has the sincerity and will to address the city�s mounting civic concerns. �The people are getting fed up with the working of clueless authorities. It is time they acted on a war footing with a sense of purpose,� it said.
