HYDERABAD: Night curfew across the state seems to have had little impact on the movement of lorries carrying raw material for construction work, which continues unabated in many parts of the city.

Residents in the western corridor are spending sleepless nights due to late night blasting and construction activities by builders.

With several real estate projects under construction in areas such as Narsingi and Nallagandla, getting uninterrupted sleep in the night has become a struggle for residents. The Telangana government’s night curfew from 9 pm to 5 am to curb spread of Covid-19 has given little relief to the residents who have raised an alarm over blasting activities, loading and unloading of construction material and movement of heavy machinery during night time.

A resident of Narsingi reached out to the local police on Twitter complaining of construction work and blasting activities being taken up by a builder during night curfew hours. “Construction is definitely non-essential activity! Wonder why night curfew not applicable to them? They still continue to work!,” tweeted Sai Praveen, the resident.

Residents rue that these builders use sandblasting method to blast boulders, which is creating a nuisance during evening hours. “The movement of trucks loading and unloading goes on till almost 4 am. Are these trucks even allowed to move around during a curfew? Have they got any special permission? The builders have become inconsiderate towards the Covid-19 guidelines,” said Vishnu Sagar, a resident of Nallagandla.

Following a complaint from a Narsingi resident on April 29, the police verified the spot and found that loading and unloading of materials as well as RMC unloading by the trucks was going on. “As per government orders, there is no restriction on movement/transportation of essential and non-essential goods. This includes lorries carrying raw material. However, we have warned builders not to violate Covid-19 rules in view of night curfew by taking up any construction work,” said Gangadhar, inspector, Narsingi police station. Source link
