Three buses have been deployed on this route from Pandavapura to Pandavapura depot, but not even one of those buses arrives at the correct time. One comes at nine o'clock, another at eight-thirty; they arrive whenever they wish. From Kateli to Pandavapura.

We need to arrange for a bus to Melkote and Gerethannooru. There's a Pandavapura bus available for us, which is helpful. This bus comes three times. One service is at 2 PM and another at 9 AM.
— Manjunatha G B · Kurubara Bettahalli, Mandya, Karnataka
It would be very convenient if there was a direct bus service from Kyathnalli to Pandavapura. But Mysore city is on both sides for us. But first of all, we don't even have a bus to our taluk.
— Manjunatha G B
Tomorrow, fish in the morning, a bus will come, and there will be no evening service cut. Another two buses should come and pick us up. What are the three problems? We are always talking about buses, buses, buses, wow!
— rakshitha raju · Attiganahalli, Mandya, Karnataka
First, the bus is not continuous, and then there is no proper bus stand, and buses don't arrive correctly. There are many such problems.
— Likith Dip · Haravu, Mandya, Karnataka
The bus that comes in the morning reaches only in the evening. All the school children are facing problems. Two more buses are needed. Let's provide them, and keep this one too.
— Ranjan · Attiganahalli, Mandya, Karnataka
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
Telli and Chaksha need to walk two kilometers from the Telegram point to the circle. From there, we are requesting that a bus be arranged for us to Pandavapura.
— Manjunatha G B
Sir, there is a morning bus problem from Pandavapura to KR Pet. In KR Pet, there is an engineering college and a diploma college, but there are no proper buses for this route. From 8:00 to 10:00 AM, there is a bus problem. Please solve this.
— Chandan
Sir, there is a bus problem from Pandavapura to KR Pet in the morning. There is an engineering college and a diploma college in KR Pet, but there are no proper buses on this route. There is a bus problem from 8:00 to 10 am. Please solve this.
— Chandan · Alpahalli, Mandya, Karnataka
We have a lot of vehicle problems, children are having a lot of trouble going to school. The vehicle only comes at 9:30 in the morning, which causes a lot of problems. If anything, only one in the afternoon.
— Ranjan
There's no specialty here. If you go to the hospital, they'll tell you it's not good there and to go to Mandya. You have to travel to Mandya, but there aren't proper buses. There are all these kinds of problems.
— Uma mahadevappa · Bevukallu, Mandya, Karnataka
Our Lakshmi Sagara village does not have bus facilities. There is no arrangement for children to go to school. Please arrange for that for us. There is a problem for us regarding bus travel, and gas is also very expensive.
— Preetham P U
Hey, there's a road problem here. College students face a lot of difficulty getting to college due to a severe bus problem. If this is fixed, it would be a great help. If we can get two (of these issues) resolved, that would be enough.
— Likith Dip · Doddabyadarahalli, Mandya, Karnataka
In Anthanalli village, there is a problem with one of the buses. Secondly, there is a problem with the pure drinking water unit for the public.
— Siddu ಅಂತನಹಳ್ಳಿ · Giriyarahalli, Mandya, Karnataka
Yes madam, there are many village children in Pandavapura. Every time they need a bus to Mysore. So if possible, if there is education there, it will be beneficial for the village children and poor children. We would like to ask for that.
— Bhargvi · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
School children, the buses for children have become more. Now, buses do not stop at KR Pete Hand Post at all. Children miss many days of college to go to KR Pete College. It will be very difficult during exam time.
— rakshitha raju · Aralakuppe, Mandya, Karnataka
The facilities in the hospitals are not good. Our doctors do not respond properly and we don't get timely appointments. Also, they are there two or three times a week and then they are not there for three days. That is why...
— Manjunatha G B
In Sonkatthur village, we now have to go 15 or 12 kilometers from here to Pandavapura for the hospital. So, if a hospital is opened here, it will be closer. Secondly, we need a Nadakacheri (revenue office) for our village.
— Manjunatha G B · Sunkatonnuru, Mandya, Karnataka
Please ensure proper bus services are arranged in the mornings for school and college students. Also, make sure these arrangements are in place for both morning and evening. Furthermore, girls are facing some issues due to unruly boys, so please make some arrangements to address this.
— Darshan S.K · Haravu, Mandya, Karnataka
There is no bus stop in our village. The bus stop is not properly maintained. Please ask them to build a proper bus stop. Also, buses do not stop, no matter which one passes. This causes a lot of trouble for school-going children. All the buses (are like this).
— Likith Dip
If health is like this, then from here it will be more or less 15 or 10. Now, if we go to places like Pandavapura, the last border, the last border, if they have a hospital there, it would be convenient now. Otherwise, they have to go to Shivali from here, they have to go to Pandava.
— Manjunatha G B
See, all the city vehicles run around, there is no problem. But boys on bikes cause a lot of trouble at night. They go at high speed, honk a lot.
— Ranjan
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
A center, a hospital for us, should come to our village. That is what is important now because it is 12 kilometers away for us. Mandya is also far. Therefore, for us here
— Manjunatha G B
In Panopura, car parking and signaling systems need to be fixed.
— Siddu ಅಂತನಹಳ್ಳಿ · Bengaluru, Bengaluru Urban, Karnataka
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
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.

In the S sector, industries should be developed. Garment industries should be developed. There is a bus shortage.
— Darshan S.K
Okay, tell me. For children to travel back and forth, please provide a bus stand for us on this side as well. This is our only request from the Melkote Assembly constituency. What's your name? Umalakshmi. Yes, tell me. Okay, that's it.
— Darshan S.K · Haravu, Mandya, Karnataka
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.
— 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
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
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
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
After making the bus free, students are facing a lot of trouble commuting to and from their homes. How will the MLA make this convenient for the students? Please consider this.
— Likith Dip
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
What happened? Speak up, tell us. No, speak, they will leave. Speak, let it be. There's no hospital here. We need to go to Pandavapura, Mysore, Bangalore. Yes, speak like that, just keep speaking. That's all, just that.
— Ranjan
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
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.
