Manhole covers demand repair

At least six sewer manholes on the Dharamsala-Delhi highway, passing through Una city, are broken and the covers are lying almost six feet below the road level, posing a risk to two-wheeler riders. Ever since commissioning in April 2012, the city sewage system has failed to function due to debris falling into the manholes during road strengthening. Manhole covers are removed frequently to clean the drains and the authorities need to take notice of the chronic problem. — Sumesh Kumar, Una

The road is widely used during the apple season, as most of the trucks from the Parala, Mandi, take this route. The authorities concerned should have repaired the road in time, as the apple season has already begun. —Lalit Sharma, Theog
