Former Minister and MP representing Chamarajanagar Lok Sabha V Srinivas Prasad took stock of the implementation of Centrally-sponsored schemes in the district and cautioned the officials against negligence in this regard.
Mr. Prasad, who presided over the Chamarajanagar district developmental co-ordination and monitoring committee meeting on Monday, gathered information on the progress of works on the National Highways passing through the district. He spoke to officials of the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) and the forest department to sort out the issues pertaining to the road works in Karnataka’s border with Tamil Nadu.
Kollegal MLA N. Mahesh expressed dissatisfaction with the road works and referred to the poor condition of several roads in many pothole-filled stretches in the district. Also, work on construction of the roadside drainage in Kandahalli had come to an abrupt halt, he complained while emphasizing the need for the officials to fill up the potholes and complete the unfinished work.
