After the residents of Kundalli, Kumaralli and Bidalli villages complained that the road works carried out by the public works department are of poor quality, Superintending Engineer Purushottam S Heggade visited the spot recently and conducted an inspection.
The villagers had staged a protest on the road in front of the PWD office in Somwarpet town and alleged that the work which was done at a cost of Rs 8 crore is not up to the mark. They also urged the senior officer to conduct a spot inspection.
The protestors demanded the upgrading of the quality of the road by widening it by nine meters, with five hundred meters wide asphalt in the middle. They said the remaining part of the road should contain drains.
