The Story in Brief
The Cyberabad Municipal Corporation removed 290 encroachments across a 14.1-km stretch on Friday, as part of its weekly ‘Walk Free’ initiative. The drive reclaimed roads, footpaths, and public spaces for pedestrians. In the Serilingampally zone, 84 encroachments were cleared from Narsingi, Ameenpur, Miyapur, and Serilingampally. The Kukatpally zone saw 55 demolitions in Madhapur, Allwyn Colony, Kukatpally, and Moosapet. The Qutbullapur zone accounted for 150 removals in Chintal, Jeedimetla, Kompally, Gajularamaram, Nizampet, Dundigal, and Medchal. The corporation says it will monitor these stretches to prevent re-encroachment.
The Indian Opinion
Drive-and-forget operations are common, but the real test for Cyberabad Municipal Corporation is follow-through. Residents often see the same hawkers and illegal extensions return within weeks. The official promise to monitor these stretches is welcome, but trust will come only when the next ‘Walk Free’ drive finds the same spots empty. Will the corporation publish monthly compliance reports, or will this be another photo-op for reclaimed footpaths that vanish by the next fortnight?
