DDA's substandard work in Defence Colony

To,

Dear Sir,

Re: Substandard attachment of gate at entrance to children's playfield, Kushak Drain covered park, Defence Colony, New Delhi.

Please find herewith photos of a replacement gate installed at the entrance of children's playfield, Ring Road end ( point zero) of the Kushak Drain covered by yourselves.

This gate has been installed a replacement to the earlier gate which was fastened extremely poorly, and hence fell apart. The present gate seems to be heading to the same fate, as the attached photographs will amply show. 

This gate installed about one month ago, has been attached with temporary wire binding, and grouted at the base point. Any layman can see this is an extremely shoddy job, and is not acceptable to the community, especially as work done by the premier builder of the Ministry of Urban Development.

The above stated defect was pointed out to your site Jr. Engineer, who showed scant regard to redressing the situation. In fact he aggressively asserted the gate was well installed, and adequately safe from theft.

You are requested to take appropriate measures to ensure a concrete pillar is raised on both sides to hold the gate in its place, as is the usual practice whilst installing gates.This may be done at the earliest, as we apprehend it is susceptible  to theft in its current state.

Yours faithfully,

Rajeev Suri
