Shridhara B.T., son of B. Thammegowda, residing in Shantinagara, Pandavapura Town. There is a road in front of our house that some private individuals claim as their plot. They dig up the road, fill it with soil, and every night they come drunk and cause trouble with abusive language. We kindly request the Honourable MLA to solve this problem.

A request to the Honorable MLA. I, Paramesh, am a resident of Bagalakote village, Melukote. All of us, generally 20 to 25 houses, have been living in this area for 200-250 years and have been paying our taxes to the Gram Panchayat. However, recently, due to the need to register these properties, they are telling us that we are outside the village limits and that we have a survey number. We have also informed you about this matter. We have requested you to help us get these properties registered through the Gram Panchayat. However, till date, you have not taken any action. Therefore, we are once again making a request to you. We are requesting through this that our house properties be registered.

MLA, the connecting road to Kenchanahalli village is completely filled with potholes. Because of this, bus service on this route has also reduced, causing problems for students. We kindly request you to please develop this road. Thank you.

So, regarding our Washermen's Street in Aruna, people, including members, have submitted requests many times for the construction of the road. However, they proceed without responding to or even properly acknowledging any of those applications.

Hi sir, this is from Balighatta. In our village, we are facing a major problem: a high number of people are becoming alcoholics because alcohol is being sold without a license in every general store and tea shop. Most villages in our Melukote hobli are experiencing this issue. These storekeepers are selling alcohol without the proper license, and the Grama Panchayat has not taken any action against them. Even those who are known sellers show no hesitation. They have already paid a fine for illegal alcohol sales, but it's only 10,000, an amount they recover within 3 days. They sell around 200+ liters in our village every month. A general person works hard and earns about 400 per day, but they spend 300 daily on buying this black-market alcohol. How can the people in my village develop? Rich people always engage in this kind of alcohol selling and become richer, while poor people are trapped in this cycle. How can poor people improve their lives? Sir, I kindly request you to take decisive action against this situation.

Below Venkatesha Lakshmi Sagara, a road has been constructed below the middle road. The upper road remains. New workers have built it, and there is some damage, a bit related to people who drink.

Our name is Ramu. Our neighbor is Rangappa. Our house is on Rangada Street. They installed a drain near our house three, four, or even five months ago. The drain water is still stagnant there, causing dirt to accumulate.

There is an opportunity for a holiday. Tell me. Anthahalli Basavaraju. The problem in our village is that in this Kalvani street, there are three street lines, and the old line is causing a lot of trouble. Please get that done for us. Because it's old, we are facing a lot of problems with water supply. Please get that done. Also, there is no way for farmers to come after 4 or 5 o'clock for the bus. We need a separate road from Pandupura to Anthahalli. School children need a separate bus, and farmers also need a separate bus.

Sir, I am Darshan from Shyadanahalli village. Please repair or reconstruct the 3 km road from the KRS-Pandavapura main road gate to my village. No one has brought this to your attention, so please do us this favor, sir.
— Darshan Ramu
I am unable to include all the information in a single slide. I believe this kind of alcohol will definitely affect our future generations; teenagers are also becoming addicted, which will destroy the future of our village. We were initially people of a dry land and lacked proper facilities. Sir, if you take action, our village development will automatically grow. I kindly request you to take decisive action against him. Even when I tried to complain to the Abkari Ilakke (Excise Department), they only came and put a fine on him, which didn't impact him much. They even gave a certain amount to the Melukote police station. The bar owner from Jakanahalli distributes a lot of alcohol here twice a week to people. Sir, I kindly request you to take action regarding this situation. I believe in you, sir; you will provide justice to me. If you need any further complaint, I am ready to identify myself. My name is LikhithkumarD, and I am from Balighatta. Thank you.

I am not making any noise or anything. The road to Shivashaila, which is the route to go to the side of the parcel, is not correct. The tar has all peeled off. Please get it repaired a bit, sir. It's difficult to walk, and children will face difficulties.

There is a pothole on the road to Kappage from Jeeves Kshetra in Ballari. A bridge has not been built below that village yet. If it rains and water overflows, it is impossible to cross. A bridge needs to be built there. Please look into this.

For village development, the village's drainage system needs to be cleared repeatedly. There are also road problems. We request you, sir, to get all these issues rectified.
— Preetham Preethu · Haravu, Mandya, Karnataka
Sir, we are from Sunkathonooru village. Since there is no drainage system near our house, we have dug pits in front of our house and released water into them. A child had fallen into one of those pits. Fortunately, the child is not in any danger. We humbly request you to please provide a drainage system. Since our Panchayat has not taken any action, I have tried to explain our problem to you. I hope you will provide a solution for this.

Subject: Request for recognition and development of Hosasayappanahalli village, Dinka Panchayat, Chinakurali Hobli Dear Darshan Sir, I wish to bring to your kind attention a deeply emotional issue of Hosasayappanahalli, a border village between Pandavapura and KR Pete. Historically, people from the old Sayappanahalli lost their homes and lands during the construction of the KRS Dam under the Mysore Wodeyars and were displaced to this new settlement, hence the name “Hosa” Sayappanahalli. Sadly, this village still has no mention in government or panchayat records, leaving residents without an official identity. Being a border village, it also lacks basic development, irrigation, and healthcare facilities. I request your kind intervention to include Hosasayappanahalli in official records and initiate essential development works to improve the lives of its people.

By putting the construction materials used next to the drain, they fall inside, preventing the drain water from flowing properly and causing a bad smell. Also, by putting cement bags next to that drain, they fall inside, stopping the water from flowing and causing a very bad smell. In empty plots, by throwing household waste and other waste materials, it is causing a lot of trouble and a bad smell. The authorities should pay attention to that.

Sir. I voted for you and I request, we are from Mallenahalli. Please build a road for our village, sir. The road from Javanahalli to our village is impassable. It was built when I was 6-7 years old, and I am 33 now, but it's still in the same bad condition. Please construct a road from Javanahalli to Billenahalli.
