Addressing the protesters, DYFI State Vice President Muneer Katipalla held both MCC and State Government responsible pathetic condition of the inner roads of the city.

“We need not to show where the potholes are. Let Chief Minister DV Sadananda Gowda show where roads are” he said.

He also said that the so called 'Sundara Mangalore Project' is aimed at serving real estate mafia and not for the road construction or any other development activities.
