East Delhi Municipal Corporation on Wednesday constituted a three-member committee to enquire and fix the responsibility of erring officials in the incident where a two-year-old girl died due to reportedly falling into the drain at Maujpur.
A senior EDMC official said that the Committee comprises sanitation superintendent and assistant engineer. The Committee would submit its report within three days. "Besides, sanitation worker of ward 40 has been placed under suspension with immediate effect for dereliction of duty," he said.
The decision was taken after councillors of EDMC met Mayor Neema Bhagat and submitted a memorandum in this matter. They demanded a strict action against those officials and staff responsible for negligence in the matter.
