Accidents are happening every day due to poor roads, life has become difficult.

He said that the farmers are upset that under the BJP rule, they aren’t getting good prices of garlic and onion, less money is being received in the market for the entire crop than the cost of cutting garlic. The farmer is getting worried about the manure.
Compensation is not being received, the earlier compensation, the amount of insurance has not been received yet. Major roads of rural areas are in dilapidated condition, no construction has been done here in the last four years, roads have turned into potholes, common citizens are upset, children are out of school, elderly are out of the house, youth are troubled to go to the city.
