    🛣️ 💧 🚧

    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

    🚧 🚶‍♀️ 😔

    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

    🏘️ 🚧 💧

    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

    🌾 🚧 🚚

    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

    🏘️ ❌ 🚧

    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

    💰 📉 🚫

    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

    🏘️ 🚫 🛣️

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

    — Raghavendra · Krishnarajapete, 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

    🚧 🤦 🛣️

    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

    🛣️ 🚧 💥

    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

    🚧 🚫 😠

    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

    🚧 🚫 😠

    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

    🛣️ 🚧 😩

    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

    🏘️ 🚧 🚫

    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

    🛣️ 🚧 🛠️

    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

    🛣️ 🚫 🚶

    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.

    — Uma mahadevappa

    🏘️ 🚧 🛠️

    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

    🏠 🚧 😡

    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 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 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

    🏘️ 🚧 💔

    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

    🛣️ 🚧 🛠️

    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

    🚧 🚫 🚶

    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

    🏘️ ❌ 🤷

    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

    🛣️ 🚫 🙏

    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

    🏘️ 🚧 🚶

    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

    🏘️ 🚧 🙏

    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

    🚧 💧 🚫

    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

    🚧 🌧️ 🌊

    Our road is not ready yet. During the monsoon season, this place gets heavily waterlogged. This is a road and a dairy for us, this is a dairy.

    — rakshitha raju

    🏚️ 🚧 🛣️

    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

    🏘️ 🏗️ 📉

    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 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

    🚧 🚫 😠

    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

    🛣️ 💥 🚶‍♀️

    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

    🛣️ 🚫 ✨

    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

    🏛️ 🚧 😠

    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

    🛣️ 🚫 🧹

    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

    🏡 🌱 ✂️

    Sir, we are from Ingalaguppe. It has been 45 years since we built our house, and there is no road for us to commute. Even if we clear a small path, it constantly gets overgrown, and we have to keep cutting our way through it to pass.

    — rakshitha raju · Ingalaguppe, 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

    🛣️ 💔 🛠️

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