“In the name of pothole-free roads, corruption and loot have taken place on a large scale under the BJP government. Development work is at a standstill. For seven years, the BJP government has not been able to fill potholes on the roads. Every year, a budget of thousands of crores is released in the name of pothole-free roads. Then it is looted. But roads remain as they are. Due to potholes, accidents are happening every day. Many people have died due to potholes,” he said in a statement.
