The crumbling condition of roads in Mandrem has sparked growing frustration among residents, who are now calling for immediate government action. Several key district roads in the region are plagued by potholes and neglect, making daily travel both hazardous and inconvenient.
Locals report that the poor state of the roads is not only affecting commuters but also disrupting local businesses and deterring tourists—two pillars of Mandrem’s economy. With the monsoon season underway, residents fear that continued rainfall will worsen the already deteriorating infrastructure.
In a direct appeal, citizens have urged Chief Minister Pramod Sawant to personally visit the area and oversee the repairs. They are demanding a swift and comprehensive response that includes both short-term fixes and a sustainable maintenance plan.
Mandrem residents hope their concerns will be taken seriously, and that the necessary repairs will be prioritised before conditions further deteriorate.
