Mangaluru, Jun 24: The activists of Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI) on Friday staged a novel protest against the inordinate delay in commissioning the road underbridge on Padil-Bajal Main Road in the city.
Members of the Bajal-Pakkaladka and Jalligudde units of DYFI as well as local residents took part in the fishing in the stagnant water' protest at the RuB at 10 a.m.
In a release issued here, DYFI district secretary Santosh Bajal said that the residents were put to hardship because of the non-completion of the project.
“It is almost a year since the RUB was constructed Padil-Bajal main road. However, Mangaluru City Corporation has still not been able to set right this vital road that provides access to many other adjoining areas. The construction of RUB has totally cut off the road connecting Faisalnagar and Jayanagar. People of these areas are forced to walk up to the main road at Padil for their daily needs and vocation,” he noted.
The RUB has been constructed in an unscientific manner and rain water collects there as there is no proper drainage facility. It is difficult for motorists to use this road, especially after it has rained, he said.
People are forced to use alternative and longer routes to avoid this mess in order to reach the city, he said adding the present situation has arisen squarely because of total lack of coordination between the civic body and Palakkad division of Southern Railways, he complained.
Mangaluru, Jan 11: Reacting to the recent video clippings provided to the media by former chief minister HD Kumaraswamy in connection with the December 19 unrest in Mangaluru, city Police Commissioner Dr PS Harsha on Saturday said that the video has to be seen in a proper sequence to come to a conclusion on the happenings of that day.
