Protest against deplorable condition of Azeez Sait Road again

The recent rains have further worsened its condition

Protesters were back on Azeez Sait Main Road in the city on Thursday, for the third time this year, condemning its deplorable condition. It is one of the busiest roads in Narasimharaja Assembly constituency, cutting through the densely populated areas of Shantinagar and Ghousianagar.

The condition of the road, which has not been repaired for more than eight years now, has incurred the wrath of the residents of the localities. The recent rains have further worsened the condition of the road, where repair work had been taken up twice this year, but was discontinued due to various reasons including technical issues.

The Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI), which had given a call for protest on Thursday, has threatened to stage a demonstration in front of the main office of Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) and the residence of former Minister and Narasimharaja assembly constituency MLA Tanveer Sait if the road is not repaired in the next one week.
