Stray dog menace is a common issue in Rajasthan and filing a complaint that can explain your issue is not that easy, however, it seems Jaipur Municipal Corporation has cracked it and listed to some ‘specific’ options for the complainants.
A little heads up, if you are someone looking to file a complaint with Jaipur Nagar Nigam, here’s what you’re going to find out:
- “There are too many dogs”
- “The dog has gone mad, needs to be caught”
- “The drain needs to be cleaned”
- “Billie has died (The Cat has died)”
Soon after the social media users discovered these changes to the site, these options received some positive and mostly hilarious responses from the netizens.
Many internet users found the options easier to use to register relevant complaints, as they are a departure from the formal and often archaic language used on government platforms.
,The drain needs to be cleaned (the drain needs to be cleaned)”, “There is garbage lying on the empty plot (garbage on empty plot)”, “dirty water is flowing on the road (dirty water on the road)” and “the monkey is dead (monkey has died)” are some of the preset options in the sub-category section.
The options are listed on the complaint portal of Jaipur Municipal Corporation – Greater.
If you are looking to file a complaint, here’s what to do. After selecting the complaint category, a user needs to choose a sub-category, which has certain presets listed. These presets, written in Hindi, include queries related to civic issues such as cleanliness and stray dog menace.
