“ The government is only talking about improving the quality of education, but they have no idea how the students are going to school using this road. The condition of the road is very pathetic as a result students are not able to go to school. The road has become such a bad condition for two long months. Students are not able to reach the examination hall on time due to such a miserable condition on the roads”, the students said.A letter has even been written to the PWD department asking whether the road will be repaired already. But seven days have passed and the students have not received any response from the concerned department. The students also said that they will block the road for a certain period of time if no action is taken to repair the road.But two and a half hours passed and no administrative official was seen.
