Mrs Kaniz Bhatti Says

Mission Compound ,Near Ajmer Pulia, ‘C’Sceme Jaipur is a residential area and there are so many commercial activities are running in private houses. I think your Department has overlooked it. We the residents of this colony are being too much disturbed by these activities. Whole day since 6 am till 11 pm there is too much crowd, noise and traffic due to these different commercial offices, Kindly look in this matter seriously. Hope to receive a favourable action from you office. Thanking you.
