She urged everyone to make every possible effort to avoid this disease on their own, and not keep any hopes from the Municipal Corporation of Delhi.
The RS MP strongly criticized the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD), alleging that the civic body has once again completely failed to prevent a serious disease like dengue.
She further said that stagnant water can be seen at many places, and the sanitation system is in a deplorable state, leading to the breeding of mosquitoes and the spread of the deadly vector borne disease.
Maliwal said: “It is extremely shameful that an institution like MCD, whose duty is to ensure the health and safety of Delhi’s citizens, has completely failed in addressing this critical issue, and people can no longer rely on the MCD for their and their families’ safety.
“Do not let water accumulate around you, take necessary precautions against mosquitoes, and maintain cleanliness. Do not expect any help from MCD,” she added.
