No accountability: Market road turns death trap in Mapusa

In Mapusa, civic works continue to crawl at a snail's pace, exposing the public to daily risk and inconvenience.

Nearly four months after the municipal council began digging up a busy road near the main market to repair a Portuguese-era underground drain, the work remains incomplete.

While most of the drainage line has been covered with concrete slabs, one section continues to remain gaping open in the middle of a road used heavily by motorists and pedestrians.
