Rangat, Apr 18: The fish market of Rangat has become one of the dirtiest places of the entire Rangat areas due to shortage of water. According to reports the fish market in Rangat does not have water tanks and the fish vendors face a lot of problems to clean the place after closure of the market.
“A well has been constructed near the fish market for the fish vendors but the well is at a distance and taking out water from the well and cleaning the place is difficult and time consuming for us. We have been demanding for an overhead tank since last many years but there is no one to listen,” said a fisherman of Rangat area.
The vendors after selling the fish often keep the place un-cleaned because of the non-availability of running water to clean the place, which make the market filthy, dirty and unhygienic.
When Andaman Sheekha contacted Mr. Adil Mathubber, Pradhan, Rangat and asked him about the non-availability of water tanks at the Fish market Mr. Adil informed that there are many complications in the process but he will sort them out and fix tanks for the fish vendors very soon.
He also added that a well is there but that is at a distance and he is aware that it is difficult to fetch water from that well for the cleaning purpose.
It is unfortunate to see places like Rangat in such a need of steel storage tanks for water. I hope they are able to get the overhead tank they have been asking for.
