There are large-scale encroachments on the berm of roads in the district, but the Public Works Department (PWD) has turned a blind eye to the problem.
Buildings have been constructed on the acquired width of the roads at a number of places. This has adversely affected smooth flow of traffic, besides sometimes causing accidents. A recent accident at the NH bypass here claimed one life.
Rajeev Kumar of Didwin said people had requested the PWD and the police to clear the roads but they have paid no heed to the problem.
