TRS leader carries out road repairs on his own
Following several representations over damaged roads given by Alkapur residents falling on deaf ears, local TRS leader jumped into action and spent his own money to take up the task.
Narsingi: Following several representations over damaged roads given by Alkapur residents falling on deaf ears, local TRS leader jumped into action and spent his own money to take up the task.
The incident came to light in Manikonda Municipality, where Alkapur township residents were fed up with the lackadaisical attitude of local authorities, who failed to pay heed to the continuous requests made by them over damaged roads, which have become accident prone zones in the recent days.
According to residents, the contractor who undertook the works of laying of pipelines of Mission Bhagiratha failed to restore them. The potholes, which dotted the entire road, also posed risk to the commuters.
The members of the society had complained to the officials of Panchayat and also in Collectorate about the civic problem they were facing. When the authorities undertook some work, most of the blind spots on the stretch remained untouched.
Later, a local TRS leader, Nilesh Prasad Dubey, who is TRS mandal vice president and former Director of Narsingi Market Committee decided to take up the task. By spending Rs 25,000 from his pocket he has taken up the repair works of the damaged road. The members of Alkapur township later lauded his efforts in this endeavour.
