DHARMANAGAR, June 27 (TIWN): Due to road blockade by locals, vehicles stranded for hours in Yakub Nagar as locals protested against Deplorable Road Conditions.
The two and a half km Dharmanagar Kadamtala main road to Bhagyapur via Yakubnagar is in a very bad condition.
For last many years, the villagers have repeatedly placed their demands before the leaders, ministers and senior officials of the department for the repairment of this road. But nothing was gained.
On Tuesday, the locals blocked the Dharmanagar-Kadamtala main road in Sonar Basa area. The blockade started at 10 am on Tuesday.
Dharmanagar police rushed to the area to clear the blockade and to ensure safety to the public. Various officials including the executive engineer Sukomal Chakma reached.
But according to local residents, the road will be opened if the District Magistrate or Chief Engineer gives them full assurance.
The agitators said, it has become a daily suffering for school students to go to school on this road.
The District Magistrate did not come and sent a senior DC Sanjib Das a little late. But the words of this DC did not satisfy the villagers. They seek assurances from higher authorities.
The villagers said that the leaders-ministers and office officials are avoiding them day after day without fulfilling their demands.
The blockade caused massive traffic jams in the area.
