“Detailed project planning (DPR) has been submitted for the upcoming sports complex and indoor stadium at Urwa Market worth Rs 35 crore. Rs 10 crore has been released for the development of Mangala Stadium in several phases. Tender has been invited for the development of Gujjarkere lake at a cost of Rs 4 crore and last date for tender is December 31.

The work will be taken up soon after public grievances are resolved," he said.

With better facilities, we hope to attract more students. Car Street road will be converted into heritage walk at a cost of Rs 14.59 crore.

    Near jyothi circle bus stand where people wait for udupi, manipal express buses....the drainage chamber has opened and overflowing with stinking water. People still stand there and wait for the buses but no action from anyone. It's in the heart of the city.
    Mr.J.R. Lobo is the right person for manglore development and non of the BJP candidates.

    Please complete the drainage work at Arya Samaj Road , alongside M A Krishna Naya Petrol Pump.

    This incomplete open drain has been untouched for the last 40 days due to diffrences between Smart city and MCC consultants.

    We the residents have suffered enough. It is real life threatening scenario .

    During your site visit last week you assured us that the same work either be completed or covered. Please do the needful.

    This gentleman is doing a great job. However once the smart city projects get completed, the beuracrats should maintain them. We have a road at FALNIR PO. the roads have been widened in some places. But the shops are using the footpath to store their ware, wash basin, garbage bins placed on the footpath and road. A small supermarket uses its parking space as a restaurant in the evenings and car parking is done on the road. Officials are not doing their job by turning a blind eye. We cut down trees to widen roads with tax payers money which they dont get to use. How do we make these officials accountable? Secondly the entire road stretch is half completed.
