Mangaluru: Commuters have sought intervention from the PMO’s office to address the pathetic condition of the road near Brahmarakootlu toll plaza on the Mangaluru-Bengaluru National Highway.
Taking to social media, residents have tagged PMO, and NHAI to highlight the indifference of the authorities to repair the road near the toll plaza despite collecting hefty toll fees from motorists.
As per a TOI report, activist Rajesh Krishna Prasad from Puttur and Roshan K Kumble have mailed photos of the pothole-filled stretch at the toll plaza to the PMO, NHAI, and chief minister Basavaraj Bommai.
The situation has worsened further with heavy rainfall lashing across the district. Tagging Union Minister for Road Transport & Highways Nitin Gadkari a Twitter user wrote: “Sir, this is the condition of Brahmarakotlu tollgate at Bantwal, Dakshina Kannada dist in Karnataka. For the potholes in the toll booth, we are paying tolls and travelling. Kindly take action on these people for not fixing them @NHAI_Official #NH75.”
Few other users also pointed out the similar condition of the roads at other places, including the Nanthoor-Panambur highway stretch. Pointing out towards the risk of mishaps due to the potholes, commuters said that the NHAI needs to find a solution to this problem at the earliest.
