Subject Bad state of city roads

Sir,

Through the medium of this letter, I wish to bring to the notice of the concerned authorities the bad state of roads in the city due to which the commuters are facing a lot of problems.

The roads of the city are in terrible condition now. Due to poor maintenance, the roads are full of potholes and cracks which lead to traffic jams and even damage the suspension of the commuters’ vehicles. This problem of the bad condition of roads is quite predominant throughout the country and it turns worse in and after the monsoon season. Dirty water gets collected in the potholes and finishes the visibility of its depth. No matter how carefully the vehicles are driven, they sometimes prove to be the main cause of accidents. 

Sources from Bengaluru Municipal Corporation say that the maintenance work of the city roads has been divided between agencies like Public Works Department and Bengaluru Development Authority which is the main problem as each agency gets a chance to pass on their responsibility. 

It is now high time that a policy should be made whereby all the important roads are maintained and regularly checked for repairs. In this way, the authorities can help to lessen the commuters’ problems. I hope you will publish my letter in your esteemed newspaper so that the concerned authorities can look into this matter urgently.

Yours sincerely
Karuna
