Open Manhole at J.P. Nagar

One of our readers from J.P. Nagar sent this above picture with a note saying: “During my evening walk close to Government Hospital in J.P. Nagar, I noticed some children busy with something on the middle of the road. As I approached them I learnt that a manhole cover had collapsed and these kids were covering the open manhole with tree branches and were placing a paper written ‘DANGER’ on it, to alert people who pass by. The sense of urgency to alert people that these children had was what the authorities concerned lack, is what struck my mind that moment.”
