The road from Alukuppe village to Alukuppe Malenahalli is not good, it needs to be repaired immediately.
— rakshitha raju
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
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.

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
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.

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
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
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
Now, the land in Old Bidar, in numbers 402, 3, and 1014, is in disrepair. The land is damaged, it has become dilapidated, there is no proper system, and no road system. Please get the encroachments cleared and construct a road.
— Manjunatha G B · Attiganahalli, 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
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
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.
— Likith Dip
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
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.

In our village Nallanahalli, no road has been built for the past 15 years, and that is why...
— Raghavendra · Krishnarajapete, Mandya, Karnataka
The one-kilometer road between Shanaba village and Tirumalapura village is in a very dilapidated state, so the MLA should get it done quickly.
— Varunkumar
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
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
Sir, it has been 30 years since the three roads (one at Malayanahalli, Javanahalli, and another Malayanahalli) have been in this condition. Sir, please arrange for the road to be built from Javanahalli to Billiyanahalli. We are unable to go to the village. Please help us go, sir.

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
First, tell them to get the 280-meter road ready. That's a huge problem. It has become a one-way street, causing a lot of trouble for vehicles coming from both sides. If there's any problem with the culvert bridge, fix it.
— Likith Dip
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
No, my friend, the road in our village is not good. There are stones and mud all over the roads in the village. All the elderly people walk on these roads. What if an accident happens? What about someone's life?
— Preetham Preethu · Aralakuppe, 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.

There is no bus facility in Madali village. We have to go for rice for the ration card. To go to Madali, the road is not good. A vehicle cannot go, a scooter cannot go.

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
These field roads, this field road, it's impossible to go on. We can't go, we can't come back. Vehicles can't pass. We have to carry things on our heads. Water has accumulated everywhere, there are potholes. We can't navigate through them, nor can we return through them. What should we do?
— Preetham P U
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
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 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
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

— rakshitha raju · Menagara, 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
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
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.
