Court not satisfied with BBMP’s measures on pothole repair work
Questioning why potholes occur after every rain, the High Court of Karnataka on Thursday said that it was not satisfied with the status report filed by the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) on the action taken to fill potholes across the city.
While observing that the BBMP does not appear to be carrying out road repairs properly, the court directed the civic body to submit details of the technology adopted to repair roads, and whether it had taken the assistance of any experts or agencies for construction and repair of roads.
Also, the court asked the BBMP to inform whether it has got any policy on coordination between various utility service providing agencies in road-cutting as roads are found dug up frequently by agencies for laying cables and pipelines.
