Residents living in the vicinity of the Noorwala Road are a harried lot as the stretch has been pothole-ridden for around three years. They approached the chief minister’s office for the second time in the last three months over the alleged apathy of the public works department (PWD) in dealing with the issue.
The members of Samaj Sudhar Sabha NGO accused the officials of the PWD department of wasting the public money and ill-planned development of the stretch of around 4 km (outside the MC limits).
The residents rued that the road portion which was constructed in 2017, was again left dotted with potholes by the end of 2018 due to the inferior quality of material used.
