AGARTALA, Sept 15 (TIWN): Deplorable condition of Dumboor dam is increasing dangers with every passing day. According to the reports around 14 years, no maintenance has been done on Dumboor dam.

Reportedly in year 1969, with the initiatives of the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, the dam had been made at madirghat.

But after that no work has been done yet. Moreover, the people who lived at that place didn’t get even compensation money for this.  

The dam has started to crack in many corners, which has increased the risks over there. According to the locals, before 10 years it was necessary to do maintenance work. But till day, no action has been taken.

However, all old machines and instruments are still using to run this dam, alleged locals. It’s to be mentioned that whether govt. claims for  investing funds on tourist spots as well as resources, the condition of Dumboor dam depicts the reality.

If the dam is collapsed anyhow many houses of Gomati dist. will go under water.

It’s to be mentioned that after 2008, in this running year many losses occurred due to raining season. So if no step is immediately taken, then it may cause huge losses in future. Govt. should take steps as soon as possible.
