The MCC has to have look at some of the roads in the district , they are so worst eg. the road leading to Carmel school back to Forum Mall. There are so many potholes that,the parents find very difficult to travel but No MLA care about it. Appreciable task by Rekha , Boobanna and Pradeep regarding their own interest in taking the initiative .
