Mohali: The area near Old Barrier Phase-1 Mohali is not a delightful sight as HERDS of stray and milch cattle can be seen daily. Residents added, one can see plastic items strewn all over and herds of stray cattle feeding on it and above all, this has also been posing a threat to commuters as the cattle squat in the middle of the road.
Road is connected to roads leading to different phases and is one of the busiest roads. During the night, the cattle are not visible to commuters therefore, posing a risk of accidents. The authorities have failed to pay any heed to the problem.
Residents and commuters suggested that the authorities concerned must attend to the problem and solve it and added that the stray cattle can be seen feasting and the civic body conveniently turning a blind eye to it.
Who Cares???
Ms Navjot Kaur Commissioner Municipal Corporation Mohali said, initiatives were being taken to control stray cattle and we have planned to increase the manpower and modernisation of facilities for impounding stray cattle.
