Bellevision Media Network
Bantwal, 30 Jul 2015: The former MLA A Rukmaya Poojary urged National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) not to lay bypass road at Kalladka on NH 75, while developing four-lane road from Hassan to B C Road, here, instead to lay flyover through Kalladka which will be the only workable remedy.
Addressing the media persons during press meet here on Wednesday July 29, Rukmaya said underpass by elevating soil will not be a workable solution as it’s unscientific, said Rukmaya. He further said that fertile farmlands on either side of road will have to be acquired for laying underpass, which is not cost effective than building a flyover that drastically reduces the cost and solves the issue permanently.
The local leaders Narayan Somayaji, Sripati Bhat, Jayanand Acharya, Vittal Naik, Mohan P S, Dinesh Amtoor and others were present.
