In Surat's Ward No. 17, residents of Lakshman Nagar Society have been grappling with a sewage problem for the past month, following the closure of the drainage outlet to the bay. Despite multiple complaints from local Aam Aadmi Party corporator Vipulbhai Suhagia, no remedial action has been taken. Expressing frustration, Corporator Suhagia issued a final warning to the municipality, stating that if the sewage issue remains unresolved, residents will stage a symbolic protest by presenting the sewage water to the authorities in two days.
