Bengaluru: ‘Poor’ road condition triggers abusive posters in minister Ashwath Narayan’s constituency

Posters with abusive messages have sprung up in Bengaluru’s Malleswaram, the constituency of Karnataka minister CN Ashwath Narayan, over the “poor condition” of roads and urged the authorities to immediately do the repair works pending for a long time.

The posters in Kannada read, “Be**** Adhikrigala Bega Raste Sari Madro (*** Officials… carry out road repair works soon)” and they went viral on social media. No one has yet claimed responsibility for the posters.

Even though the citizens and activists condemned the swear words used, they said the frustration of the public over the poor condition of the roads was understandable.
