Road dug up twice in 3 years, locals ask PM Modi to adopt it
BENGALURU: Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) has started the “Adopt a Street” initiative where people can adopt a street and shoulder the responsibility of keeping it clean. But none has come forward to adopt Gear School Road at Doddakannelli. With the road rendered bad because of digging, the local residents are asking Prime Minister Narendra Modi to adopt it and get the problem fixed.
The residents of locality have been facing hardship for the past three years, ever since the road was dug up by Bangalore Water Supply Sewerage Board (BWSSB) to lay water pipelines. But it was not asphalted later. It has been again dug up to lay underground drainage lines (UGD). There has been no positive response from the BWSSB, BBMP, the corporator of ward 150 and the local MLA to make the road motorable, locals say. Now the residents are taking to Twitter asking the Prime Minister to adopt the road.
