The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) has received a staggering 4.8 lakh complaints regarding streetlights over the past five years, according to official data. The data reveals that the AMC received an average of 2,667 complaints per month related to faulty streetlights. The complaints ranged from issues like non-functional streetlights, dim lighting, and flickering lights, causing inconvenience and safety concerns for residents. The data further highlights the importance of maintaining and upgrading the city’s streetlight infrastructure to ensure the safety and well-being of citizens. The high number of complaints also underscores the need for prompt and efficient resolution of such issues. The streetlight complaints data was shared by the AMC in response to a Right to Information (RTI) query. With nearly 1 million streetlights under its jurisdiction, the AMC plays a crucial role in providing adequate lighting for the city’s roads and public spaces. The data indicates that there is a significant scope for improvement in the maintenance and monitoring of streetlights in Ahmedabad. As one of the largest cities in India, Ahmedabad requires a robust and reliable streetlight system to ensure the safety and security of its residents. The AMC is likely to face increasing pressure to address these issues and enhance its streetlight infrastructure in the coming years to meet the growing demands of the city’s population.
