What Our Readers Say: No headway for Malana link road

For the past five months, the historic Malana village has been facing problems due to the lack of road facilities. The road connecting to Jari was damaged at several places due to the disaster on July 31. Villagers have to traverse around 10 km on foot to reach Jari. The elderly and patients are the most troubled by this. Villagers are forced to buy goods at high prices due to high transportation charges. About 150 vehicles are stuck, and the livelihood of many people has been badly affected. The repeated request with the government, administration and project management has gone unheard. The refurbishment of the road should be expedited.

Road leading to Nakthan village submerged in dam of hydel project

The road leading to Nakthan village in Barshaini panchayat has been submerged in the dam of the hydroelectricity project in Pulga. Due to this, villagers are facing a lot of difficulty in commuting. Despite pleading with the project management several times, the problem has not been resolved. The administration and the government were also informed about this many times, but to no avail. The construction work of the project is almost complete and its barrage is being filled due to which the road and various pathways leading to the village have submerged completely. The project authorities should construct a motorable road to connect the village at the earliest.
