Churaibari, Sep 4: Residents of Churaibari raised concerns over the poor condition of the area’s only water filtration plant.
The plant, which was built to supply clean drinking water to six local panchayats, was reportedly infested with snails and insects.
Established in 2019 by the state government, it served thousands, including schools and hostels.
However, the locals claimed that the water quality had deteriorated due to neglect by officials and contractors, making it worse than drainage water.
Citing risk of waterborne diseases, the villagers demanded immediate repairs and a change of contractor.
