People wait for buses in pitch darkness amid elephant scare

Igur, Mar. 25: Traffic on the highway has been temporarily closed due to the start of work on a new bridge at Igur between Somwarpet-Madikeri highway. An alternative route has been arranged via Kajur for the convenience of passengers.

It is a common sight for passengers travelling towards Somwarpet-Bengaluru to wait for buses in front of the Forest Department's residence at Kajur Junction. In this area, where passengers travelling towards Somwarpet-Bengaluru at night after getting advance tickets for state transport buses, elephant traffic has increased in recent days, creating fear. Another worrying fact is that even though electric poles have been installed in this place, the bulbs have not been lit for three months, leaving the area completely dark. At night, passengers have to wait for buses in fear of elephants. For the convenience of travelers, the Sangam Yuvaka Sangha of Aigur installed the nameplate of the route free of charge, and the villagers have urged the officials of the concerned department to install street lights as soon as possible.
