Sir,

The road in front of Nypunya School of Excellence in Dattagalli is riddled with potholes, making it difficult and unsafe for motorists to navigate. The situation becomes particularly alarming during the school’s opening and closing hours, when school buses, vans and hundreds of vehicles carrying students and parents use the road. The poor condition of the road poses a serious risk to schoolchildren, their parents and other road users.

While the stretch from the Ring Road up to the crossroad leading towards Netaji Circle has been well asphalted and provided with a wide footpath, the remaining portion extending towards 3rd Cross has been left unattended. I also appeal to R. Raghu Kautilya, Chairman of Nypunya School, to take up the matter with the authorities and help ensure that the road is repaired without delay.
