Located in South Delhi, more than 10.5 lakh poor people live in Sangam Vihar. It is a densely populated residential colony. The entry & exit routes of Sangam Vihar are very narrow.

Dr. Jolly’s delegation demanded construction of pucca-building of Sangam Vihar police station to replace the current dilapidated structure. He also called for re-location of the police malkhana encroaching on DDA green belt park. Dr. Jolly demanded that the main boundary wall of Sangam Vihar Police Station be shifted backwards so that the road becomes wide and blocked traffic can run smoothly. He demanded 24 hours x 7 days traffic police deployment on Mangal Bazaar road and Ratia Marg to control heavy traffic inflow & outflow.
