An Artist who exposed BBMP’s negligence in the city road developments has turned out to be fruitful. Tunganagara Main Road will no longer have portholes. Dressed like an astronaut, Baadal Nanjundaswamy represented main road’s potholes as Lunar surface by walking beside those craters.
The video gained huge popularity on social media and accused BBMP of not talking responsibilities for the road damage. However, after the video went viral, BBMP has now decided to start the repair in the particular road after the artist’s creative protest.
BBMP’s carelessness
Huge potholes in the streets of Tunganagar Main road had forced Baadal to come up with this idea to question BBMP’s responsibilities.
Thank you people for such a overwhelming response and support!
