A chronic sewage leakage from a drain near the Nehru Chowk, outside the Press Club in Palampur, has become a serious civic health concern. Local residents and traders accuse the authorities concerned of continuously ignoring the serious issue. The drain is leaking in one of Palampur’s busiest commercial zones near the Shani Mandir market and has persisted for a considerable period despite repeated attempts by the Municipal Corporation authorities to repair and replace the damaged cross-drainage drain. Locals say that the failure to fix the leakage permanently showcases poor workmanship and the lack of accountability.
