Sewer Water Floods Streets of Varanasi; Locals, Tourists Face Trouble

The Varanasi Municipal Corporation is in a literal puddle these days. The city, also the parliamentary constituency of PM Modi, has been selected under the Smart City Mission phase-I by the government of India.

Nilesh, who is on a visit to Varanasi, said that the streets and ghats of Varanasi are very beautiful, but a lot of filth also exists on the roads that lead to these ghats.  Due to this, the tourists are facing a lot of problems commuting across the city.

Aman Alam, a resident of Nagwan, said that the condition of the road leading to Ravidas Ghat has been pathetic for the last three months as most of the sewers on this route are overflowing throughout the day.
