For the past six months, sewage has been overflowing in Mohali while sections of the interlocking‑tile road have collapsed, leaving thousands of daily commuters struggling to navigate the city.
The municipal area of Mohali has been grappling with a persistent sewage overflow that began six months ago. Water from the drainage system has been spilling onto streets, creating unsanitary conditions across several neighborhoods.
At the same time, the interlocking‑tile road that serves as a key arterial route has suffered structural failures, with the surface caving in at multiple points. The damaged sections impede smooth traffic flow and pose safety risks for both vehicles and pedestrians.
Local commuters, numbering in the thousands each day, report significant delays and difficulty in reaching workplaces, schools and markets. Residents have voiced frustration over the prolonged inconvenience, urging authorities to address the drainage and road‑maintenance issues promptly.
