Jharkhand HC Demands Sewage Infrastructure Update in Ranchi

The Jharkhand High Court has issued a directive to the state government and the Ranchi Municipal Corporation to present a status report on the ongoing work related to the sewage and drainage system in the city of Ranchi.

This action was prompted by a public interest litigation filed by Shubham Kataruka, highlighting the dire state of streets and drainage in the capital.

During the proceedings, advocate LCN Shahdeo informed the court about the division of the sewage system into four distinct zones, with only Zone 1 under municipal control. Meanwhile, the state will oversee the other zones, with completion expected soon in selected areas.
