Guwahati: In order to tackle the drainage block situation as well as the long-standing urban flood situation during rainy season in Guwahati, the Guwahati Municipal Corporation put two ‘Super Suckers’ to work. The ‘Super Sucker’ is a massive truck that has one machine unit and two container set units that can store the drain silt after collection.
The truck has a storage capacity of 10,000 litres. The super suckers are an alternative to the traditional method of silt collection, where the collected discharge is kept near the drain to dry until it is taken by a garbage truck. The collected silt will then be transferred to the garbage station. The entire process just takes 20 minutes to clear blocked drains.

Two such Super Suckers were brought near Guwahati’s Christian Basti area today to clear off the blocked drains. The entire activity was conducted under the supervision of Housing & Urban Affairs, Irrigation minister Ashok Singhal.
Every year, most parts of Guwahati face excruciating flood situation in the rainy season. With the usage of super suckers, Guwahatians will be relieved off from blocked drains, thus paving way for flood waters recede quickly.
