Broken footpath inconveniences pedestrians

A broken pedestrian path in front of Punjabi dhaba near the Indira market in Mandi is posing a serious risk to people. The situation has turned out to be a nightmare for senior citizens and children who have to cross it daily. A careless step can land them in serious trouble. In the past few days, some people have already been injured while crossing it after their shoes got stuck in a broken area. The Mandi Municipal Corporation authorities must repair the path immediately to avoid any untoward incident. Shamsher Singh, Mandi
