"The household checking, anti-larval operations and fogging activities which are needed to check mosquito-breeding have to be planned strategically and must be carried out well in advance. The corporations have clearly failed in this, which is why we have dengue outbreak situation every year," said state health minister A K Walia. He said that mosquito-breeding checks, prevention and notification of diseases like dengue, malaria and chikungunya was the responsibility of the corporations.
"Multiplicity of authority is a big problem here. The health department can issue directions, suggest measures but the implementation is the civic body's responsibility," said a senior official, directorate of health services.
The municipal corporations, on the other hand, claim they were doing their best to check mosquito breeding. "In North Delhi, mosquito breeding checks have been carried out in 1.23 crore houses and 22,310 of them were issued legal notices, besides initiating prosecution action against 2,828 houses," said Yogender Chandolia, chairman standing committee, North Delhi Municipal Corporation. He added that in the last 14 days, about 11 lakh houses were checked for mosquito breeding and two lakh houses were covered for focal spray and fogging. Officials of the other municipal zones too claim to have taken similar steps.
