Students and residents of several colonies poured out their woes before Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national general secretary N. Lokesh as his Yuva Galam padatyara entered Kurnool on (May 6) Saturday.
The residents expressed their displeasure over the delay in undertaking an underground drainage project and construction of houses for the poor, alleging that applications in this regard were submitted to the authorities concerned three years ago.
“Some 600 persons in our colony have applied for pucca houses, However, not a single house has been built yet. Earlier, 1,200 people in our division used to get pensions. The number of beneficiaries has reduced to 350 now,” complained the residents of the Labour Colony in the 45 th Ward.
