Mangaluru, Oct 28: With the Prime Minister Narendra Modi making his first ever visit to participate in a programme in Dakshina Kannada on October 29, the local BJP party workers seem to have gone hyper in their enthusiasm to draw their leader’s attention.

In the process they have thrown caution to the winds while painting the town saffron with the welcome banners and buntings.

This flex board, for example which is installed at Kasibettu on the Mangaluru-Belthangady Highway is clearly putting the citizens in danger as it is tied to a road safety signboard.

The warning sign is installed along a dangerous curve in the road to caution road users to slow down and watch their wheels. But those who have put up this board on behalf of Ranjan G. Gowda, President of BJP Belthangady Unit seem to have no concern for road safety.

One can only hope this will not result in a tragedy to innocent people due to the recklessness of a few.

Yes sangeeth, no one will see it unless someone meets an accident, if that becomes to be your loved ones then there is no point in regretting.Grow up and give some matured comments.

Not only this flex.. all flex should be removed. Stop flex politics

Good job CD for noticing that. Police should take action on that

Well said Yogesh and Sangeeth

Anti-BJP people spreading hatred to stop Modi wave in Mangalore. But no one can resist the wave..

Rubbish.. Nobody will watch sign boards while driving. If they are obeying traffic rules, accidents wont happen any more.
