I drove down yesterday on the road that connect Trident
Hotel, Mayfair Lagoon and Jayadev Vihar that is full of potholes of sizes that
can throw an experienced drivers in a tail spin; rookie and uninitiated like me
would have a harrowing experience in negotiating that stretch of roads. I
wonder, even after 65 years of independence why our road condition in the State
Capital is so poor. If our Urban Development/Public Works Dept. Secretary spend
one week in the morning to travel down in the city, after their morning walk on
a two wheeler then I guess the condition of the roads in our city would not
remain the same. It is the question of ignorance; as most of senior Officers of
Govt. travel only from their plus Govt. quarters to the Secretariat and
therefore fail to comprehend the owes of the city residents on city roads
accurately. Another thing is the Private sectors who make a turnover in Crores
of Rupees also forget their corporate social responsibility towards the
condition of the city road with which their customers reach their place and
help them to earn their bread and butter. If Corporate and trading community
could come together then our road quality would improve substantially. Lets
hope some body out there is listening.
