Jagran Correspondent, Ghaziabad | The dilapidated condition of the Ganga Yamuna Hindon Apartments in Siddharth Vihar, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, has raised concerns among the 4,000 residents. In the 1,298-flat society, plaster has peeled off the walls and columns of many buildings, exposing the rebar. Balconies outside the flats are crumbling and falling apart.

The rooftop above the plumbing shaft is also in poor condition. Residents fear that if repairs are not carried out in time, a major accident could occur.

Six Transformers Yet To Be Installed

The association alleged that the electrical infrastructure has not been adequately maintained for nearly 10 years. Twenty-four transformers were proposed for the society, but only 18 have been installed. Six transformers are pending. The electrical infrastructure has not even been handed over to the UPPCL.

The association has spent approximately Rs 10 lakh on repairing the electrical infrastructure on its own. The president stated that the association has filed a complaint with the Legislative Council's Administrative Delay Committee regarding these problems.
