Kantabanji: Water scarcity problems have started to haunt residents from the very beginning of summer at ward no. 10 and ward no. 11 under Kantabanjhi N.A.C of Bolangir district, reports said.
Residents of the two wards have started feeling the pinch of water scarcity for their daily purposes. Despite repeated complaints, officials concerned are least bothered and do not pay any heed, locals alleged.
Adding to the woes of the residents, only pond that quenched the thirst of the residents here has dried up. Locals have been demanding supply water for drinking purposes, but to no avail as their pleas are left unheard.
Fed up with the apathy of the officials concerned, residents of these two wards have given a written complaint to N.A.C executive officer Smt. Bishnupriya Padhi who recently joined Kantabanji N.A.C office.
Smt. Padhi assured residents to provide water by a tanker of Public Health Department every morning and evening until the water problem was solved.
