NURMAHAL Talwann area residents on Wednesday staged a dharna at Y-point demanding concrete flouring of the road from Y-Point to Mehat Pur T- Point and widening of Talwann-Dhangara road to 18 feet.
They demanded that no tipper should be allowed during school opening and closing times.
Residents said that the overloading of tippers and trollies should be stopped and should run from 7 Am to 7 PM.
They demanded to stop the discharge of dirty water of Budda Nalla in Sutlej River as river water is mixing with groundwater due to the deepening of the river by sand mining which is causing health problems to residents.
A memorandum addressed to Phillaur sub-divisional magistrate was submitted to Nurmahal Naib Tehsildar Dharmindar Kumar who reached on the spot to pacify agitating residents.
