Prior to the recent repair work, the road had been plagued with numerous issues. Poorly lit streetlights further compounded the danger, increasing the risk of accidents. The damaged road had been causing immense traffic congestion, with IT employees, including Srikanth Reddy, experiencing severe delays during their commutes. Srikanth reported that the road’s condition had worsened over the past few months, and driving on it, especially during the rainy season, had become increasingly difficult.
In response to the complaints and media coverage, the Narasingi Municipal Corporation implemented interim measures to repair the road. However, concerns remained about the durability of these repairs. Srikanth Reddy urged officials to implement a permanent solution to ensure safe and smooth travel for the residents of Hyderabad and Nanakramguda, especially with the upcoming rainy season.
