    💧 ⚡️ 🙏

    Oh, there's a big problem with water here, and they don't clean the drain at the back, so water collects everywhere. Also, we don't have much electricity. Please provide that, that's all.

    — Likith Dip · Aralakuppe, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏡 💩 🙏

    We are Keretanuru Praveen. In our village, the drainage system is not very good. They keep dumping all the sewage here. Please fix that.

    — Preetham P U · Tonnuru, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏘️ 🚧 🛠️

    There is no sports stadium for love in our village. There is a road problem. Water flows beside the drain. We request that it be fixed.

    — Ranjan · Sunkatonnuru, Mandya, Karnataka

    💧 🗑️ 🛠️

    The drainage system in our village is not good, please fix it. Also, there is a lot of garbage; you should arrange to get all of it cleared. They dig up the drains and dump it there; please get that done as well.

    — rakshitha raju · Mahadeshwarapura, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏠 💧 🚶‍♀️

    The road and drainage system for our house are both not proper. All the drainage water and house water flows onto the road. We are in a situation where we have to walk through it, right here.

    — Likith Dip · Kanaganamaradi, Mandya, Karnataka

    💧 💩 🙏

    I am speaking from Hosakanambadi village. There is no cleaning of the drainage systems in our village. I am kindly requesting you to get it cleaned.

    — Likith Dip

    🏘️ 🚧 🙏

    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

    🏠 🚧 🌊

    Our house is downstairs, the drain is not proper, water is collecting in front of the house and even on the path.

    — Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    🛁 🚫 🔧

    Oh, sir, first talk. We have a bath drain at home, but it's not working, it's blocked. We need a bath drain to be fixed. We will show it to you.

    — Likith Dip

    🕳️ 👶 🙏

    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.

    — Preethi.s Gowda · Sunkatonnuru, Mandya, Karnataka

    🤢 🗣️ 😩

    There's a very strong drainage smell coming from nearby here. We are exhausted from repeatedly going and telling them (about it), instead of passively suffering here. They are not taking anything to heart. Please just look into it a little and pay attention, that's all. If nothing is done...

    — rakshitha raju

    🏞️ 🗑️ 🙏

    Whether it's washing or cleaning, the dirt accumulates, sir. My name is Akash. They are making our canal dirty. If you get it cleaned, it would be very helpful for us, sir.

    — Akash p · Kennalu, Mandya, Karnataka

    💧 💩 🤢

    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.

    — rakshitha raju · Mahadeshwarapura, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏠 🚧 😡

    Do it, tell me, there is so much. There is no kitchen in one place, they couldn't even build that. Modi's drains are not clean, they haven't been built yet. The problem is the same on that side too.

    — Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    🛣️ 💧 🚧

    The road to Halakuppe main gate is not good, water is not good to go inside the village, water comes normally, there is no drainage, there is no main drainage, there is no road inside the village mainly.

    — Likith Dip · Hosayalekere, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏘️ 🚧 🙏

    Please, our MLA, there are no basic facilities, no roads, and no proper drainage in Kanugumaradi Gram Panchayat and its surrounding villages. Please come and visit once and look into this matter.

    — Santhosh Kumar v c · Kharadya, Mandya, Karnataka

    🛣️ 🚫 ✨

    In Moor, there's a problem with road drains and gutters. There's no cleanliness, everything is dirty. The Panchayat doesn't clean it. They will do something about it.

    — Ranjan · Aralakuppe, Mandya, Karnataka

    🛣️ 🚫 🧹

    But in some places, there are no drainage systems and no road systems, and in places where there are road systems and drainage systems, there is no proper cleaning of them. There should be proper cleaning and locals should also be aware of this, this is our program.

    — Manjunatha G B

    🌧️ 🗑️ 🤢

    Gaudesh shares that due to the rain, the drains along this road are not in good condition. They haven't been cleaned. Overgrowth and debris have accumulated and overflowed into the yards. All cleaners should take action.

    — Uma mahadevappa

    🚧 💧 🤢

    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.

    — Arvi Gowda · Bengaluru, Bengaluru Urban, Karnataka

    🏘️ 🗑️ 🧹

    There's a lot of garbage in our village. Nobody is cleaning this road. So, please, if you could tell the municipality to clean it, it would be very helpful. We can't even sit at home, it's so dirty.

    — KriS · Bengaluru, Bengaluru Urban, Karnataka

    🏘️ 🚧 🙏

    We are Mahesh from Sunka Tanur, and there is no proper road and sewage system after that, we are requesting our MLA to get it done.

    — Ranjan · Sunkatonnuru, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏚️ 💰 🆘

    Sir, it's not repaired, please get it repaired. Also, we need to be given the title deed and all that. And Sir, our house is an old, tile-roofed house, it's about to collapse/fall apart. We don't have a grant, please help us get one.

    — Manjunatha G B · Attiganahalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    🛣️ 🚧 💥

    In our village, there's a drainage problem. The road inside the village also has issues; it's completely broken. It's difficult to commute, and there are accidents happening there.

    — Preetham Preethu

    🏘️ 🚧 🙏

    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.

    — Siddu ಅಂತನಹಳ್ಳಿ · Giriyarahalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏘️ 🚧 💧

    The main entrance road of Halavu Kuppa is not good for entering the village. The water supply is not proper. Even though water normally comes, there is no proper drainage system. There is no main drainage. There are no roads inside the village, mainly.

    — Likith Dip

    🏘️ 🏗️ 📉

    The drains and canals must be repaired. In our village, all the roads are completely ruined. After that, Kaviparana Thappa should build towards the village. Villages will progress. And then, whenever there's a setback, they've made things worse again.

    — rakshitha raju

    🛣️ 💔 🙏

    Hello, I am Suvane Ambuttu from Vishweshwaranagar, Pandavapura Taluk. In our Vishweshwaranagar Housing Board Colony, the roads are not in good condition at all. Please do something about this.

    — Vinayraj manju

    🕳️ 🌧️ 🌉

    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.

    — Preetham Preethu · Ingalaguppe, Mandya, Karnataka

    🚧 📉 💰

    Hello everyone, I am Sunasi Murthy from Sunkatondoor. The road construction work in our village has been somewhat reduced, so I am requesting that it be compensated for. Also, the sanitation of our village and the village itself...

    — rakshitha raju

    🏘️ 🚱 🆘

    In the pretentious AC persons colony, no one has letters, please arrange for everyone a little bit of water facilities. I don't have water or anything at home, please arrange for someone a little bit quickly.

    — Manjunatha G B

    🛣️ 🚧 🛠️

    The roads in the village are our biggest problem. All the roads are dug up and in disarray. We need the roads to be repaired. That's our only problem, nothing else. All the roads near the circle are also in a bad state. We are requesting that the roads be developed a bit.

    — Preetham Preethu · Aralakuppe, Mandya, Karnataka

    🚧 🚑 🛠️

    Sir, a delivery hospital and an ambulance service should be arranged for Alakuppe village. And the roads are still very damaged; all of them need to be repaired a little.

    — Manjunatha G B

    🛣️ 🚫 🙏

    We need roads. We don't have a road to go down here. We need roads there too, but there are none. Father, we need roads. Also, there is a drinking water facility.

    — Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    🚧 🚫 😠

    Even if we ask them to clean the drains, they won't do it. There's a lot of swimming and roaming around. Even if we ask them to build a road, no one properly builds one. The machines and street lines have been there for many days, for many days.

    — Darshan S.K

    🚧 🚫 ❓

    Tell me, our problems are that the streets are not straight, and the drains are not made. What will the current MLA do for us? First, our village members are not good. They don't bring any grants to our village. How do these people vote in the assembly elections for this constituency?

    — Darshan S.K · Hatna, Mandya, Karnataka

    🚰 🔌 🚫

    They are experiencing a problem that stems from Kudandikol (or a specific system/source). Water is not reaching the last point, and this is causing numerous issues. When electricity, especially phased current, is supplied, people turn on their motors. This leads to insufficient water flow at the final level, and also affects the drainage.

    — Uma mahadevappa

    🏘️ 🆘 🗣️

    We are running. This is Mandaburam, a village near Adakkur. Our village road and increased water supply are the main needs. Sir, we have a big issue to raise.

    — Smriti Tiwari · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka

    🛣️ 🚧 🙏

    Friends, Race Nagar has become a waste area, and the road between Lakshmi Nagar and it needs to be repaired. All vehicles are falling into potholes. Please get it done.

    — Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    🛣️ 🕳️ 🛠️

    Bolinalle, that drive is a problem, the road is not clean, there are potholes everywhere, it's all broken. That's the problem in the village. Please fix it, Bolinalle.
