BALLIA: Had BJP brass taken note of the problems people faced because of clash of ego of two leaders - MLA Surendra Singh and MP Virendra Singh Mast - the area could have witnessed development, feels Babban Singh, an elderly local.
Showing the pathetic state of NH-31, passing through Chiraiyya turn before connecting with Bihar's Chhapra district, Babban's envy is the newly constructed Purvanchal Expressway which is close to 50 km from where he was playing cards with other natives of adjoining villages of Chiraiyya crossing.
