When Voices Go Unheard: The Silent Struggle of Our Roads--Kharar-Mohali link road.
The linking road between Gurudwara Baba Banda Singh Bahadur Chapar Chirri and Fateh Minaar is currently in a terrible condition, causing significant distress to the local residents and commuters who rely on it daily. Despite numerous complaints and appeals made to the government and responsible authorities over an extended period, no effective action has been taken to address the deteriorating state of this crucial roadway. As a result, the local villagers and community members have taken matters into their own hands, coming together to attempt repairs themselves in an effort to make the road passable and safer. The poor condition of the road has not only made travel difficult and hazardous but has also drastically increased the day-to-day maintenance costs for vehicle owners, placing an additional economic burden on the community. This road is particularly important as it connects several key landmarks, including the historic Gurudwara Baba Banda Singh Bahadur, Fateh Minaar, and several major schools in the area, making its upkeep vital for both cultural and educational access. The ongoing neglect raises serious questions about the priorities and accountability of the current government, highlighting a failure to maintain essential infrastructure that impacts the safety and well-being of its citizens. Furthermore, the dilapidated road has been a contributing factor to numerous accidents, posing a constant risk to commuters and exacerbating the urgency for immediate and comprehensive maintenance efforts.
