RESIDENTS of Minjapada village under Badgaon panchayat in Balikuda block of Jagatsinghpur district are living in miserable condition due to lack of road connectivity.
The two km canal embankment road from Substation Chowk in Gadarodang to the village is in such a condition that it is difficult for the 200 inhabitants of the village to access it, especially during rainy season. Villagers face severe hardships due to poor road condition, forcing patients to be carried on stretchers for nearly two km during medical emergencies, risking their safety.
