    🚧 🚫 😠

    Brother, he hasn't properly covered the soil and left. Not even one street road is correct. Not even one drainage pipe is correct. There's no neatness. The light poles, brother, they take money from the Panchayat, they come, brother, but they haven't installed a single light. What haven't I done, sir? This circle, brother, here's the circle.

    — Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏘️ ❌ 🚧

    It's all neglected. No concrete has been laid on the streets, and there are no drains. Everything is just left as it is. Within the village, two or three streets don't have concrete; we haven't even seen concrete, and there are no drains either.

    — Darshan S.K

    🏠 🚧 😡

    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

    🚧 🚶‍♀️ 😔

    There is no road system in our area. The drain construction is half-finished. We raise cows that eat 'boosa' (fodder), and we have to carry this 'boosa' from another street. We have absolutely no road system here. Someone has said that no one will provide a road. They have stopped the drain and road work.

    — Manjunatha G B · Kanaganamaradi, 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

    🏛️ 🚧 😠

    No, they are not doing it. No one from the government. Once a bull appeared. For three days, even the minor roads in the village are not ready. Modi's governance, Modi's governance! No one is cleaning, right? Who will do it? Come and see the village, look at the Gram Panchayat (village council).

    — Likith Dip

    🚧 🚫 😠

    No development work has happened at all. It doesn't matter which MLA comes, they or these. No work is done. All roads are full of potholes; it's a complete mess.

    — Likith Dip · Sunkatonnuru, Mandya, Karnataka

    🚧 🤦 🛣️

    Inside the road construction, nothing is properly built. There's no road in any of the three sections. Everything is dug up and left unfinished. First, the drains haven't been laid, and the base layers haven't been cemented. They haven't even made a cement road. There must be all sorts of problems here.

    — Kushal Shekar · Haravu, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏘️ 🚫 😡

    No water at all. Roads are not built. Drains are not done. Roads are not built. What are they doing? They haven't made roads even after taking up the projects. Zero facilities. Zero water, their provision is a disgrace. They release water, but the drinking water you are asking for, have you even had any? You get nothing, absolutely nothing.

    — Uma mahadevappa · Kanaganamaradi, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏘️ ❌ 🤷

    Tell me, there is a problem with fungus rain in Halebidu, the drains are not cleaned, even if the Gram Panchayat gives it, there is no use, there is no use, they say all the roads are broken, what's the use?

    — rakshitha raju · Menagara, Mandya, Karnataka

    🗑️ 🚫 🔌

    The city is all full of garbage, all the trash is just lying around inside the village, nothing has been cleaned up. No work has been done by the panchayat, no work is being done. Also, there is no proper electricity, son.

    — Uma mahadevappa · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    🛣️ 🚧 🚫

    What to say, there isn't a single light in this temple, all the drains are now closed, the roads are all broken from there. What else to say, all the roads are like this, the road to the next village is completely closed.

    — Likith Dip · Bevukallu, Mandya, Karnataka

    📝 🚫 ❓

    There is nothing there. Despite the grant being written, the people didn't provide anything for the cattle shed. What is the benefit of whatever facility is there? It's useless, no matter which MLA provides it. They had done it for us in Halebeedu village.

    — Manjunatha G B

    🚧 🚫 😠

    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

    🌾 🚧 🚚

    Now, we have some of our lands in the T.H. Sidra area. Okay, we have a significant road problem for our land there. This is because, from there, we have to carry things for a minimum distance. Even if we grow any crop, there's no proper road now, nothing at all.

    — 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

    🏘️ 🚧 💧

    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

    🏘️ 📉 😔

    What's the use, father? I'm telling you, I'm 100% sure, son, that absolutely no development has taken place in our Shivahalli village's Dudda Hobli. No development has happened in Dudda Hobli. Do you want to say anything else? Is there any other problem? No business, no work has been done, my dear.

    — Darshan S.K

    🛣️ 🏚️ 😥

    I did not do it, who did not do it in Pamana Gavadibadatulge, nothing can be done, and then these roads are not there, they have fallen, what remains of them, if something happens to the poor

    — Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    🚧 🚫 ❓

    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

    🏘️ 🚧 💔

    There is no good drainage system in Aralu Kuppa, and now after the Congress government came, there are about 500 potholes and no road system. There is no public system at all for Aralu Kuppa.

    — Likith Dip

    🏘️ 🗑️ 😔

    In Shorli village, there is no one to sweep the main circles, nothing at all. They collect all the taxes, but there is no cleanliness. Brother, this is ours.

    — Likith Dip · Shivalli, 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

    🛣️ 💥 🛠️

    Okay, there's no road there. There's only no cleanliness, nothing. Are all these things missing? Sixty-two accidents occur at any given time, and something should be done about that on the streets.

    — Likith Dip · Haravu, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏛️ 🚫 💪

    What has this government given you? Nothing from this government. From Modi's side, only a gas connection named Bhagya Jyothi came, that's all. They haven't done anything else for us, not even for the village's development. What else can we do? We just do labor work and survive.

    — Likith Dip · Shivalli, 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

    🛣️ 🚧 🛠️

    The roads in the village are causing us a lot of problems. All the roads are dug up and have become unusable, so we need the roads to be repaired. That's our only problem, there are no other issues. All the roads around the circles are in a bad state, so please develop the roads a bit for us.

    — Preetham Preethu

    🚫 🏥 ❓

    We will not go for any of this. Are there good facilities in your village's government offices? If there is no hospital available, where will they go now?

    — Likith Dip · Hullenahalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏘️ 🛠️ ❓

    Whom should I ask? To no one. Now, if we say we want to make a village a smart village, basic amenities are needed. How can we get basic amenities, sir? Those basic...

    — Bhargvi · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka

    👷 💸 😔

    Are you doing well? We are going for some work. Beyond that, we are leaving having gained nothing. What have we gotten? Why is there no development? What have the villagers done for us? We went for wages, but we were not paid.

    — Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka

    🛣️ 🚧 🛠️

    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

    🏘️ 🚫 🛣️

    In our village Nallanahalli, no road has been built for the past 15 years, and that is why...

    — Raghavendra · Krishnarajapete, Mandya, Karnataka

    🛣️ 🚫 🙏

    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

    🛣️ 🚫 🧹

    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

    🛣️ 💔 🍚

    There is no road from Duddha to Huli Lake now. There is no road even to Hulle. We have to go there and bring rice. All the roads are gone. There is nothing else.

    — Likith Dip

    🏘️ 🚧 🚶

    Inside the village, there are no streets, no roads, no drains. People built houses on the road, and there's no one to question them. Numbers are all small in all villages; they all closed and came. They come and go, they come.

    — Darshan S.K

    🚧 💧 🚫

    Madam/Sir, that's why meters haven't been installed. Also, for those roads, normally some necessary work hasn't been done. The pipeline has been laid well. Some (connections) work, some don't. Some taps get damaged repeatedly. Water is not reaching them. They haven't provided for the future.

    — Ranjan · Mahadeshwarapura, Mandya, Karnataka

    🚧 🚫 🚶

    There is no road, this bridge needs to be built. All bridges are like this. It's a big problem to keep going. T.S. Chitra, there is no way to go there at all. No way to go.

    — Preetham Preethu · Mahadeshwarapura, Mandya, Karnataka

    🏘️ 🚧 🚫

    My name is Raju Keretanna. The road system in our village is not good. Also, the road connecting to Chaturka Gram Panchayat is not good. Even though our village is included in the tourism department, there is still no tourism here.

    — rakshitha raju · Mahadeshwarapura, Mandya, Karnataka

    💧 🏛️ 🤥

    Basic amenities, drinking water, roads, all these are the government's responsibility. They are the ones who should provide them. Instead of doing that, the government says we'll give subsidies, we'll give this and that. Saying this, making one person president in every bank... all this is a lie.
