Oh, sir, first talk. We have a bath drain at home, but it's not working, it's blocked. We need a bath drain to be fixed. We will show it to you.
— Likith Dip
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.

Hello sir, we have come from Lakshmi Sagar. We are housewives and want to do something. If we want to do something from home, you have to support us, or if we need something, you have to give us an idea. We will do anything, but it has to be from home.
— Bhargvi
Sir, it's not repaired, please get it repaired. Also, we need to be given the title deed and all that. And Sir, our house is an old, tile-roofed house, it's about to collapse/fall apart. We don't have a grant, please help us get one.
— Manjunatha G B · Attiganahalli, 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
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
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
Sir, this is Darshan speaking from inside. Sir, our road needs to be extended closer to us. It will be about one kilometer. Please, sir, build a road for us from the gate to the inside.
— Darshan Ramu
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
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
Oil prices, pulses, and all household rations should be slightly reduced for us. We are poor people, we must say this.
— Preetham P U
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
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
Tell me, sir, what kind of help? What help did we not get? What kind of help is needed? Now, if we want to grow crops, if we want to grow vegetables, we need money. We need fertilizer. Then the entire land needs to be leveled.
— Bhargvi
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, 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
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
We will contact everyone. We will explain any problem to them. We will give them the writings. So, for those who are not in contact, how do you think you can connect with them more? We need to finish their matter by contacting them like this.
— Bhargvi · Pandavapura, 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.

— Darshan S.K · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka
Sir, we are from Sunkathonooru village. Since there is no drainage system near our house, we have dug pits in front of our house and released water into them. A child had fallen into one of those pits. Fortunately, the child is not in any danger. We humbly request you to please provide a drainage system. Since our Panchayat has not taken any action, I have tried to explain our problem to you. I hope you will provide a solution for this.
— Preethi.s Gowda · Sunkatonnuru, Mandya, Karnataka
Please sir, there are three roads, which are very muddy roads. Please take action on them and get those roads developed for us, sir. You need to develop them for us.

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.

Sir, I am Darshan from Shyadanahalli village. Please repair or reconstruct the 3 km road from the KRS-Pandavapura main road gate to my village. No one has brought this to your attention, so please do us this favor, sir.
— Darshan Ramu
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 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
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.
