PCMC says 92% drains cleaned; activists remain skeptical

Every monsoon, waste blocks drains and triggers localized flooding in several pockets, including Phugewadi. PCMC said silt and debris are removed immediately and sensitive areas get priority. Activist Jayant Kariya cited repeated overflow from an Army ground nullah, arguing desilting claims do not match on-ground experience during heavy rain. Officials expect further briefings this week.
