The private housing societies have constructed illegal buildings across river Swan from Swan camp to Dhahgal village which has narrowed the river from both sides.

Due to the illegal constructions the drainages have narrowed and floodwater or even sewerage water is unable to pass through the drainages
If the situation would remain continue soon the drainages would become blocked and could cause high flood in the area.
