I want to highlight something about Shakarpur. Every day from 7:30 a.m to 4:00 p.m, some people like —

scrap buyers and vegetable sellers and fruit sellers and coconut sellers and key sellers. These people just walk in the streets to and fro and with their shrill high-pitched voices buy or sell the items.

It seems like Shakarpur is not the residential area but the partial marketplace. These shrill high-pitched voices create unwanted stress in the minds of people and disturbs them while working something important and sometimes while talking over phone on a balcony or in the street, it is not possible to talk with peaceful mind. These people having marginal income forces them to not even to take a holiday for a single day.

My suggestion to our local government is that please make some plan to discuss with these people so that they sell or buy their items peacefully.

I would like to add a few personal remarks — As you know that Shakarpur is also the student area for various competitive exam preparation like C.A

(Chartered Accountant) and if these noise issues gets solved then it will benefit the students more so that they will concentrate more in their studies and can excel in their studies.

I think this can be one of the historical steps for converting Shakarpur into The Developed Shakarpur.

Besides noise, I want to highlight other points on Shakarpur as follows—

  1. There are lots of options for food and other items you can get in this area.
  2. There are lots of dead-ends and very narrow streets you can see, and in such streets there is no much sunlight.
  3. Now every home is in the rat race of making the flats kind of homes or Builder floors so that the owner can earn more money by selling their flats or from the rent but with the coming of flat systems major problems of parking have been solved; but the inadequate sunlight striking at the homes and the streets is hampered so much so that you will miss the sunlight.
  4. You will see daily the free of cost Municipal garbage collecting vehicle coming across the streets with the high volume song of Gadi waala aaya ghar se kachra nikaal. I think this is a major step to increase cleanliness in the locality.
  5. There is very little natural greenery in Shakarpur but some people have their private nurseries on their terrace, balcony, or at their entrance.
  6. At least two dogs you will see on every street.
  7. There are lots of eyeball watching you every time.

Thank you
