Taking cognizance of the complaints that fogging has not been done in many areas, Sisodia directed all Municipal Corporations Of Delhi commissioners to start fogging in every area of the city and monitor it properly.
"Monitoring of the fogging should be done properly. It should be ensured that fogging is being done in every area of the city. Inform me if you face any problem including the fund crunch. We will take every possible step to do away all the problems in fighting dengue," he said.
