Corporators tussle over road repair in Bengaluru’s Deewanarapalya

BENGALURU: While in some roads in the city, potholes have been repaired, in case of Deewanarapalya, Malleswaram, most of the roads are non-motorable. Locals said that owning to pressure from the public and following the direction of the corporators, the road near IISc’s D Gate has been tarred but done in a haste, and they wished that the road was not done since it resulted in an incline.

Vivek M, a resident of Malleswaram, said the tussle between two corporators — of ward numbers 46 and 36 — for repairing the road in the area including the one near IISc has become a matter of concern. Malleswaram is a high-profile constituency as it under IT- BT minister Dr CN Ashwath Narayan.
