    I don't understand the priorities of the elected representatives. Instead of focusing on sustainable development, these politicians want to implement projects which not only which have a large impact on ecological balance but also on the common man. Is this project a really requirement at the foothold of ecologically sensitive western ghats ?. Prior to approval, did she do any study on the effect of projects like these on western ghats ?. In my opinion, elected members should concentrate first on basic necessities than on the projects which give the fame overnight. These people giving least priorities to issues like sustainability in water management , waste management, agriculture etc,. Everybody wants name, fame and money overnight.. So not so warranted road projects like these are the ideal options for these politicians. Well, we have chosen these people..So we people have to see the dark days..

    With due respect to Mr.Sunil Kumar for his dream Karkala ambition and whatever efforts he has taken in developing karkala this project is absolutely not required as the present road itself is very wide and recently it was upgraded. The new project will cut down more trees and damage environment further. Instead this fund should hv been used for other developmental projects. My sincere request with concerned people to stop this project.

    Count from today how many years will take to complete this 4 lanes? Also many will lose houses and land in this expansion. Hope this akka provide them market rate compensation to rebuild thier lives . I have met few of my relatives who is losing thier land marked for road expansions 3 yrs ago. No one is saying how and when they will receive compensation. It is so sad people lose houses and no where to go due to lack of funds. Some of these people owned these land for more than 200 years and lose for this expansion.

    Arjun, may be your grandchildren, its not Dubai where such road projects finishes in one year with 10 times better quality. It will take 25 years in Karnataka and costs many times more than developed countries and quality of work...with 40%...God knows!

    Are you minister for agriculture and farmer welfare or in the roads and transport? Jo kaam diya gaya hai woh toh karo? Now I expect minister for foreign affairs come and announce MSP for farmers and Minister for SME speak about law and justice. Truly Bhartiya Jokers Party.
