There is fear and anxiety amongst the people because the  MDR Road from Queenynagar to MES College junction is in a very bad state. There are pot holes and cracks. The commuters find it very difficult to commute on that road. Many accidents have occurred there. For the last many years this road was in bad condition during the monsoon every time it is repaired. Many times this issue is highlighted in the Press and Social media. Requesting the government to kindly depute officials immediately to inspect this road and come with a permanent solution. This bad road condition should not happen during every monsoon.

The government has constructed a big market complex at Cortalim. But there is no maintenance of this complex. The whole building gets flooded and bird droppings are found everywhere because of faulty design. The Vendors and shopkeepers are not willing to occupy that market. Govt offices like Police Outpost, Post office, electricity , agriculture , WRD are operating there. Panchayat cannot afford the maintenance of the huge Market Complex. Requesting the government to please undertake the repairs and maintenance of the Market Complex at Thana, Cortalim
