Action will be taken against officials who are responsible for the indefinite delay in repairing the Peringottukara-Kanjani road, which was dug up for laying the pipes of the AMRUT drinking water project for Guruvayur.
District Collector Haritha V. Kumar, who visited the area along with C.C. Mukundan, MLA, on Friday, said that strict action would be taken against officials who pushed the people to extreme hardship for more than five years.
The work on laying the drinking water pipeline from the Karuvannur river to Guruvayur under the AMRUT project was started more than five years ago. The hardship of the people started when the roads were dug up from Peringottukara to Mullassery through Kanjani. For the past five years, people on this stretch have been forced to use the severely battered road.
