Residents of Dhakoli, Peer Muchalla, are a harassed lot as the relaying and repair work of the road has stretched beyond two months and is in no sight of the completion.
Long traffic jams are witnessed on the road daily during peak rush hours. Now, dust and gravel is suffocating people in their homes. Residents said water supply and road repair work was going on at a tardy pace near Shiv Mandir.
For the last three days, the Sub Divisional Hospital in Dhakoli was without water supply. It was only on Monday morning that the water supply was restored after repeated requests. Officials of the municipal corporation dug up pipelines alongside road and severed several illegal connections.
