Whereas, recently the admission of patients with symptoms of dengue
fever in the hospitals of Puducherry is on the rise. Dengue fever is stated to be
caused by viruses spread by mosquitoes that thrive near human habitations. While,
the Government is taking multipronged efforts to contain spread of this epidemic,

And whereas, It is noticed that in the urban areas of Puducherry and
Oulgaret Municipalities, a vast extent of lands has been laid as house plots and
many people have purchased these plots. However, many of these plots are found
to be vacant and are being used as dumping grounds by the neighbourhood
inhabitants. These vacant plots have also become breeding grounds for
mosquitoes as well as venomous reptiles endangering human health and lives.
The vacant plots have thus become a source of vectors of such dreaded diseases
and poisonous creatures;
Now, therefore, I, E.Vallavan, District Collector of Puducherry District
in the capacity of District Magistrate, hereby direct the owners of the vacant
plots lying within the municipal limits of Puducherry and Oulgaret under section 144
of the Code of Criminal Procedure to clear their vacant plots and maintain them
free from garbages, hedgegrowths, shrubs, bushes and filth and to ensure proper
drainage of water collecting in these plots in whatsoever manner.
I further direct that this clearing activities shall be completed within
twelve days from the date of issue of this order failing which action will be
taken under section 188 of the Indian Penal Code which attracts punishment with
imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to six months
or with fine which may extend to one thousand rupees or with both for
disobedience thereby causing danger to human life, health and safety.
At Puducherry, dated this 5th day of October 2017.
E. VALLAVAN,
District Collector-cum-District Magistrate.
