Partial Underground Sewerage Coverage Leaving Older Dharmapuri Areas Underserved

Dharmapuri town's underground sewerage network covers newer residential areas but leaves older and more densely populated localities without proper sewage disposal infrastructure. Residents in uncovered areas rely on aging septic tanks and open drains that are inadequate for current population densities. A targeted programme to extend sewerage coverage to all remaining areas, including the older town core, is urgently required.
