He conducted the visit in response to the request of people of Chand Nagar.
After assessing the loopholes and discrepancies that led to recurring water logging problem in the area during rainy season, Sethi asked the concerned officials accompanying him to fix the problem once for all so that the problem of water logging in that area does not occur again so that the people as well as the shopkeepers do not face problems on this count in future.
