trailing Modi directly, she added, " You and your family have made life unsupportable and unlivable for us for your convenience. Your family categorically claimed ' kaam nahi rukega' ok also. My posts will also not stop now! "

For several days now, construction work has continued well beyond admissible hours, frequently late into the night.

"As per original regulations, construction in residential areas must follow designated timings. Unfortunately, these guidelines appear to be constantly overlooked. This isn't just an annoyance, it's a matter of basic living conditions," she stated, emphasizing the impact on families, senior residents, and working professionals.

Calling for immediate intervention, she urged authorities to take action.

"I urge the concerned authorities and builders to rigorously adhere to permitted construction hours, minimize noise pollution, and ensure that residents' right to peace and rest is respected." " I prompt the concerned authorities and builders to rigorously cleave to permitted construction hours, minimise noise pollution, and insure that residers' right to peace and rest is admired. "

Questioning the responsiveness of the system, she added, "Just imagine if this was any other situation, and had I been in trouble, what would have been my situation? The system is so flawed, it's unthinkable and shocking."
