The condition of the Keane Bridge, Lawai, Boroikandi is also sorrowful.
Riazul Islam, a city resident from Subidbazar said, poor state of roads and water logging have simply compounded our miseries. These cave in very easily when full loaded trucks ply on. Attention should be given to all these. But sadly there is none to take action he said.
