Sir, The Male Mahadeshwara Road, from Nazarbad Police Station to Dairy Circle, is crying for repair since more than a              year but nothing seems to happen in this high-traffic road.  The same can be said about many city roads.

Sir, I have come to New Jersey  State in USA to stay with my son for a few months. Here I noticed that  the  number plates  of the vehicles had ‘Garden State’ written on them apart from the usual ‘New Jersey’ and the registration number. I came to understand that New Jersey had vast tracts …
