Stuck in traffic for 1.5 hrs daily, kids write to Shivakumar to fix potholes
The New Indian Express Bengaluru
|August 24, 2025
"WE don't drive on roads, we hop around potholes", "We want basic infra, not daily adventure." These are some of the quotes from the letters written by schoolchildren to Deputy Chief Minister (DCM) and Bengaluru Development Minister DK Shivakumar over pothole-filled roads and bad traffic leading to frustration and reaching school late.
Some of the children from Carmelaram, Gunjurpalya and Chikkabellandur in Mahadevapura assembly constituency have started a 'Letter Campaign' to get the issue addressed. The children and officers from the surrounding areas get stuck in traffic for 1.5 hours during morning and evening peak hours daily, prompting them to write to the DCM.
