Plea to expedite works on Ashoka Road

Though months have passed since the works on the stretch of Ashoka Road was taken up, they are yet to be completed. Shopkeepers and residents said that they have already faced enough problems due to the works being undertaken at snail’s pace. Some shopkeepers even allege that their business has come down due to these works. Incomplete footpaths and half laid inter-locking tiles greet pedestrians on this road. Authorities concerned are urged to take steps to complete the works at the earliest.
