First dengue case reported [1]

The first case of dengue this season was reported from the Karol Bagh area today. The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) staff spent almost the entire day in sanitising the area. The MCD has claimed that it was prepared to handle the situation. The administration has even started implementing measures to prevent the further onslaught of the virus. The MCD team reached the Karol Bagh area and instructed its staff to clean the surroundings, which painted a sad picture of overflowing sewage and filth on roads.
