Letter to Editor for City-Mail.Sent 12 Nov 2010.




Sir ,

The Hitavada is doing yeoman's service by highlighting the apathy of the civic officials by publishing public interest reports about bad roads , poor garbage collection, poorly maintained public parks , indiscriminate cutting of trees etc . I , and I am sure the people of Nagpur appreciate the effort and are thankful to the Hitavada . With this mail I am attaching three photos .Half surfaced one is of  Ring Road joining Hingna "T" Point . The Other two are of tri-junction of  Jaitala Road and Hingna road near Shitala mata Mandir .  You may use these photos to highlight another public interest report or just publish the following ,as a letter in The City -Mail .

Sir ,
During the tenure of Dr Chandrashekher very large number of roads were widened . The newly constructed roads were well painted with lane markings, road edges , well painted dividers and serviceable street lights .We the Nagpurians were then really proud of our city and proudly showed off to the outside visitors. Sadly , Officers who have later occupied Dr. Chandrashekher's post were not only unable to improve the things but even could not maintain what  Dr Chandrashekher had achieved and the present condition of roads is well known to all.
After lot of hue and cry, quite some time back, the road resurfacing work of Ring Road joining Hingna T Point was done .However,the powers that be resurfaced only half the width of the once really nice and WIDE road .This leaves very uneven and split road surface. There is as much as 3 - 4 inches of difference between the level of road  surface.This is an invitation for accidents by two wheelers .Why only half the width was resurfaced it was so is not known . If it was to save  money , authorities should realise that at some point in time they will have to resurface the whole width !  I request concerned authorities that whenever resurfacing work is undertaken it should be for the whole width of the road and not only part of the road .

PM Velankar, Nagpur.
