The Bailey bridge on the Largi-Balichowki road at Dhaman gets frequently damaged, causing inconvenience to commuters. People have to travel 30 km extra to reach Balichowki through the alternative Thalot-Panjai road. Vehicular movement stops for hours when the bridge is damaged, resulting in long queues of vehicles on both sides of the National Highway No. 305. The state government and the NHAI should come up with a permanent solution to the problem. — Sandeep Thakur, Banjar (Kullu)

The Shimla Municipal Corporation has taken a serious view of dogs crapping on The Mall and in other main areas of the city and their owners being indifferent to the nuisance. It is an offence and a dog owner will have to clean the poop but no action is taken. If the Municipal Corporation has made a rule, it must be implemented as well.
— Menaka Sharma, Shimla
