KOCHI: Of the many tales of apathy the residents of Edakochi have to share, this one takes the cake. For the past eight months, the roads here are in a pitiable state, causing misery to motorists and pedestrians alike.
It all began with the project to lay pipeline for water connection, which took off after a delay of two years. “Though the funds for the project were allotted during the time of UDF Government, the work began only in 2018, and it took eight long months for the pipeline to be laid on the Edakochi-Aroor stretch,” says Redgen Rebello, general secretary, Save Edakochi Forum.
