Kathmandu, December 22: This life of capital city seems much worst these days. Cities are covered with dust and smoke in absence of rainfall. It’s been 5 months since last rainfall occurs in capital city. Days are becoming much hotter and hotter. So a decertified view of city clinches all’s focus to it.
Water, a very basic thing to run the human beings life and capital city since last 10 years is lacking it. Water sources like tap, pond, well, rivers, stream etc are being ruined out and hence here is lack of pure water. Most of the people are unable to drink clean and pure water. Only few of the high class one are hiring the water from supply corporation and many of the middle class people are roaming around with empty pots so, as to get a single jar of water. So, Kathmandu city today is all dry and any body coming here. Compare it to Rajasthan.
City like New Road Durbar Marg Baneshowr, Boudha, chakrapath etc are fully dependent to water from Sundarijal. The dam is lacking the potential flow. As soon as the water level decreases the authority stops supplying water. And crises occur in city. These days 4 days gap is maintained by Sundarijal water project in water supply. After 4 days a water is left out just only for 10-16 hours within these hour people should able to manage water for drinking, cooking, washing clothes and utensils, bathing and many more. People have their problem that they remained unbath for 1 month in lack of water. And it was their very bad experience that they use paper plates and plastic cups for eating and drinking. People life is still hard and they are living life of wash less.
Some of the area with ground water pulled out by machine. Some area by pump water and they all lacks purity. So diseases spread in city. People are usually seemed suffering from headache, common cold, cough and sneezing, throat problems etc.
Nobody is concerning this problem. Neither W.S.C. nor government bodies, ministries, leaders, etc nor the content of New Nepal with New lack petrol crisis hits hard to city.
