We urge the government to address this issue before Chaturthi.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">AAP Vice President Sunil Singnapurkar pointed out that crores of rupees have already been spent on road repairs, yet the condition remains pathetic. He demanded that further repair of the damaged stretch must be undertaken under the same tender instead of wasting more public money through fresh contracts. \u201cWe demand that this road be completely repaired before Chaturthi, so that people can travel safely during the festive season,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-105042\" src=\"https:\/\/goakhabar-com.preview.jikut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1000239500-1-300x249.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"502\" height=\"417\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1000239500-1-300x249.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1000239500-1-768x637.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.goakhabar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1000239500-1.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 502px) 100vw, 502px\" \/><\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">Also present at the protest in Mandrem were Adv.

Accidents are happening, lives are at risk, yet the BJP government chooses to distract people with irrelevant issues instead of fixing basic infrastructure.
