SIVASAGAR, Sept 24: While interacting with the media fraternity in Sivasagar and Demow in Sukapha Bhawan on Tuesday evening, the new district commissioner Ayush Garg, said that he would try to solve the endemic problems of the district within his administrative capacity on a priority basis. He admitted that no district commissioner can work to the satisfaction of all the people within a short tenure when there are multiple problems, but there would not be any lack of sincerity in this regard. Representatives of various media houses drew his attention to problems like the lackadaisical attitude of the National Highway Authority in NH 37 expansion works from Jhanji to Demow, problems of procuring loose earth and silt for the project, the apathy of the Forest Department in developing the Panidihing Bird Sanctuary, the destruction and siltation of the historic Jamuna canal, which is related to the flash flood problem, the horrible condition of the BG Road, and the apathy of the road construction companies to the plight of the commuters, along with illegal encroachments on government land.
Some media persons, including seniors like Manoj Kr Borthakur, Inamul Hazarika, Kumar Abhijit Duwora, Ananta Smith, Shekharjyoti Duwori, Himangshu Neog, and Manoj Gogoi, raised the issue of the nonavailability of medical facilities within the town during night hours, as all the pharmacies remain closed and the nursing homes do not entertain any requests to admit patients during the night. The media persons also spoke about the tourists who come to Sivasagar not getting the facilities they want in the town, which is a serious problem.
