Residents and Congress activists in Chachoura‑Binaganj have staged a unique protest by planting trees in potholes and performing a Sadbuddhi Yajna, urging authorities to repair the deteriorating bypass after a memorandum sent seven days ago remained unaddressed.
The Chachoura‑Binaganj bypass, a key link between the towns, has fallen into disrepair, with potholes and uneven surfaces posing a danger to commuters. Seven days ago, a memorandum was sent to the local authorities requesting urgent repairs, but no action has been taken so far. In response, residents and Congress volunteers organized an unconventional protest, planting saplings in the potholes and conducting a Sadbuddhi Yajna to draw attention to the issue. They demand immediate road rehabilitation and accountability from the responsible departments.
