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

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.

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.

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
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
Sir, in our Melukote assembly constituency, in the Gram Panchayat ward and Taluk Panchayat ward, officials are not responding properly to farmers. Please rectify it properly.
— Pramodh k s
This is one of the worst things here. I raised a complaint about alcohol being sold in our village's major general store. Actually, this isn't a personal matter or a minor issue; it significantly contributes to the growth of our village. However, the problem is that these complaints have had zero impact – no action has been taken, and even now, they sell more black market alcohol than before 😂. The people in the panchayat office know everything but pretend not to. I respect Darshan sir, but please take some action on these kinds of issues. I know it might seem like a silly matter to handle, but the result will be very effective for the poor people.
— Kumar
In our town, there is a bit of a garbage problem here, that's all. Please get that sorted out a bit, and then in the lake, people keep throwing all kinds of garbage. Please get that side of the lake, all the banks, cleaned up a bit.
— Preetham P U
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
Please desilt the LBL canal a bit. That's why we are asking, as a lot of farmers are facing problems. If the LBL canal is desilted, we won't have water problems. Please fix it and select one more.
— Likith Dip · Haravu, 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
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
People in the fourth ward of Kennalu village are facing many problems. The government should pay attention to this.
— Mahesha
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
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
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
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.
— Kumar · Jakkanahalli, 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
Our Kiro Thannuru Parasadvayam is a place with many problems, we request you to correct them properly and build a proper stadium. Also, develop schools and colleges.
— rakshitha raju · Mahadeshwarapura, Mandya, Karnataka
There are a lot of problems in Pandavapura, especially regarding electricity and water scarcity. And I want to look into solutions. Instead of relying on software, why don't you build something else? When my friends visit this place... Right?
— Bhargvi · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
Dozens of accidents involving people and animals are happening daily from Aralukuppe Petrol Bunk to Mallalli Road for various reasons; something must be done about that. And quickly address the tap water in the streets and roads.
— Ranjan
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
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
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
Sir/Madam, we are from Melkote. Our Paramesh Gowda has made a lot of efforts for the development of Melkote in the past. Even now, Melkote lacks cleanliness and the tourists who come here don't have facilities. Neatness is also our aim.
— Bhargvi · Pandavapura, 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
First, tell them to fix the road that is currently usable but is deteriorating. That's a huge problem. It has become one-way, causing great difficulty for vehicles going and coming from both sides. If there is any problem with the canal or the bridge, please get that fixed as well.
— rakshitha raju · Mahadeshwarapura, Mandya, Karnataka
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
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
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
In our village, people have eaten the society's money, the society is in loss, the dairy is in loss, there is a road problem, and there is a street light problem. No matter how much is done or posted, it's not put up now, one
— rakshitha raju · Mahadeshwarapura, Mandya, Karnataka
That's the problem, children don't stop properly here. The school facility is not good, the bus facility is not good, the surroundings are not clean. Look how it is here, please do something about it.
— Likith Dip
Brother, please speak for a minute. (This is) B.Ed Nagava, from Mandya district, Dudda village, Bevakal post. Brother, here the streets are not connected, the streets are not connected, and the light poles are also not connected, brother. Please build some roads, brother, for the people now.
— Darshan S.K · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka
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.
— Santhosh H S · Huyilalu, Belavadi, Mysuru District
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.
— rakshitha raju
Our road should be developed, then the school, and then the hospital here. All of this needs to be developed. Some roads are not done. The power lines have all fallen down, so all that needs to be cleaned up and fixed.
— Likith Dip
Hey, we are here. Are they taking us away? They should look after us. Build a road for us. We are having trouble on that very road. Give us this land back, and those too.
