How will they understand the pulse and needs of Prayagraj? They will get the work done by paying only attention to their own convenience and that of the contractors. The result is that more than a year ago, houses have been demolished in the name of road widening. Shops were left demolished, deep sewer line which has been working at a snail’s pace for a year, even today digging is being done by closing the roads due to which the common people have to face the problem of traffic jam, the authorities do not care. Had to. He said that the Chief Minister held the Mahakumbh preparation meeting for the 10th time in two years and issued deadlines with warnings every time but the result was zero.

The MP said that if the opinion of the local public representatives had been taken then the huge budget released in the name of Maha Kumbh would not have been wasted and there would have been some permanent construction work so that after the end of the Kumbh Mela, the people of Prayagraj would have benefited from it and tourism would also have been promoted. But nothing like this happened, now on the pretext of shortage of time, whitewashing of tax works started and to show grandeur, painting on the walls and preparations to cover the slums and cheap Chinese chandeliers. Propaganda for the grand Mahakumbh event will be done by dazzling the pillars and LED light poles. SP State Secretary Vinay Kushwaha said that Allahabad city was a symbol of greenery but lakhs of trees were cut in the name of road widening and now whatever is left has been cut in half for the last one week in the name of trimming the branches of shady trees on the roadside. If trees are cut on the roadside, people will yearn for shade in the summer.
