Uncarpeted Road on Malhar Road-Le Baron Stretch Causes Commuter and Business Concerns
A road stretch from Malhar Road to Hotel Le Baron on Ferozepur Road in Ludhiana has remained dug up for 15 to 20 days following pipeline installation for the Ludhiana Surface Water Supply Project. The uncarpeted road has caused vehicles to get stuck frequently, especially after rainfall, posing risks to commuters and affecting local businesses. Shopkeepers and residents expressed frustration over the delay and lack of clear contact points for complaints. Authorities acknowledged the issue and indicated restoration work is planned.
