While city residents continue to suffer because of poor roads, the municipal corporation has completed only 10% of the road carpeting work for the current fiscal.
With monsoon expected to hit the city by June end, the road work will be suspended for another couple of months.
The civic body manages a road network of around 1,400km, among which V-6 roads (access roads to houses) are in the worst condition, according to residents.
Notably, every year 20% roads in the city are to be carpeted on a rotational basis. However, the work was halted for a couple of years due to MC’s inability to pay contractors.
