Ludhiana Residents Report Hazardous Roads and Garbage Issues Amid Monsoon Delays
Residents of Ludhiana report hazardous road conditions worsened by monsoon rains, with potholes concealed by water increasing accident risks, especially for two-wheelers. Municipal officials acknowledge the issue, citing ongoing pipeline work under the 24/7 river water supply project as a reason for delayed comprehensive repairs, limiting current efforts to patchwork. Additionally, several localities face garbage accumulation alongside damaged roads, leading to sanitation concerns and foul odors during the rainy season. Authorities have been urged to address these civic problems promptly.
