MOSQUITO ERADICATION
There are a lot of eradication programmes that Netas are talking about. Nobody talks about eradication of mosquitoes. Because of this menace there are more ills than all others put together.
- While Swaccha Bharat is practised in many place it is still not widespread. In Chennai where I live, the city is full of filth everywhere with water logging, people urinating on streets and widespread spitting.
- Neither the Government nor the Corporation is worried about the disease that are spread by mosquitoes. Dengue, Malaria, Respiratory diseases because of chemicals made to get rid of mosquitoes......
- While the mosquito repellents are widely advertised by Companies who make them, it is only profitable for them, but has not made a dent in getting rid of the menace
- So many hours of quality sleep lost. A good rest is necessary for not only good health, but also the productivity at the workplace. This is lost.
- We are trying to promote tourism. But with so much of mosquitoes, how can we improve our tourism inflow?.
- People have got so much used to mosquitoes that there is a general "don't care" attitude and so awareness to keep surroundings neat is almost absent.
- I do not think there is any concerted efforts at any level where means to end this menace is discussed or debated. more

You yourself admit that the problem is with people urinating everywhere. How much will the govt do if people are not willing to take precautions and not leave open drains or allow water to collect. The govt is taking extreme measuring by spraying toxic chemicals. What more can it do? more

Actually the Mosquitoes are related to the Politicians...both drink blood but differently. So how can politicians criticize their own brethren? more

Yes mosquito menace is spread across our country and something needs to be done to eradicate it as other viruses have been eradicated. Atleast, a vaccine needs to be invented to protect from mosquito borne ailments. more

Mosquito control is a constant battle and involves huge man power and material cost. Govt can levy mosquito control tax and citizens should be willing to pay. more

It should be a unified approach by gov. authorities and the public. We wait for disaster to happen before we act. Both central and state agencies should come with white paper to eradicate such menace over next five years. more
