Virajpet, Nov. 25: In order to draw the attention of the government and the MLAs of the constituency to the poor road condition of Kodagu, the Virajpet Mandal BJP held a protest under the leadership of Virajpet Mandal BJP President Suvin Ganapathy in front of the Public Works Department office in Veera Japet. Later, a petition was submitted to the engineers of the Public Works Department.
The BJP workers who gathered in front of the department not only shouted slogans against the government but also protested for more than an hour. BJP party leaders attacked the Congress government's failure and accused the MLAs of being negligent in the issue of road development.
Speaking during the protest, former MLA K.G. Bopaiah said that such a situation was not created when the BJP party was in power. Now, even though the Congress government has completed two and a half years in power, the fact that road development work has not been done yet is a reflection of their administration. The main roads of Virajpet and Ponnampet taluks in Kodagu district, including Virajpet, have deteriorated severely, causing problems for road traffic. The MLAs of the constituency and the Congress party spokesperson had stated that road repair work would be carried out everywhere after the rains stopped. But they said that it has not been implemented so far. BJP District President Ravi Kalappa said that many days have passed since the rains stopped. The repair work of the main road has not been taken up yet. The Congress government has failed to fulfill the aspirations of the people. The lack of road maintenance for the last two and a half years has led to the deterioration of the road today. The Congress is limited to only campaigning and sloganeering. There is no development. The government, which said that the road work will start as soon as the rains stop, has remained silent. He complained that no progress has been seen in any road work even after two and a half years.
Former BJP district president Robin Devaiah said, "We are ready to give an account of the development works done during the BJP party's MLA tenure. It is not right for the current MLAs to give false information to the people that the funds sanctioned during our MLA tenure were brought during their tenure. He challenged the current MLAs to issue a white paper about the funds brought.
Virajpet Mandal President Machi Mand Suvin Ganapathy said, "The roads of both taluks are completely potholed and two years have passed without repairing the roads. It is not enough to just advertise on social media that crores and crores of funds have been received for development programs and road development, but to provide accurate information about your funds to the people." It is not possible to travel on the roads from Thitimathi to Madikeri and Siddhapura. Vehicle accidents are increasing due to potholes, and if road work is not done, they will protest in villages and villages." Veera Japet Mandal BJP spokesperson Chepupadira Rakesh Devaiah and many others spoke.
Public Works Department Engineer Satish accepted the appeal and spoke and said that the road work will be completed by the end of December. He said that the problem is due to rain. The BJP leader, who was outraged by this, gave correct information and asked the officials to do their work properly and respond to the aspirations of the people. He also warned of a strong protest in the coming days if the road work is not done. He also asked for information about the grants released for the works.
On this occasion, District BJP Vice President Gummattira Kilan Ganapathy, BJP District Promotion Secretary Nellira Chalan Kumar, Taluk General Secretary Kuttanda Ajith Karumbaiah, party leaders Reena Prakash, Kanti Satish, Yamuna Changappa, former District President Robin Devaiah, City President Anil Mandanna, prominent Kutanda Sachin Kuttaya, Sashin Subramani, Machimanda Ravindra, Hundreds of party workers including Anita Poovaiah, Juna, Anita, District Treasurer Sampath, Ammunichanda Ranju of Raita Morcha were present.
