Member of Parliament Supriya Sule On Wednesday highlighted about the condition of a bridge in Daund taluka that connects several villages, including Bori Aindi, Borkar Vasti, Kulal Vasti, Gaikwad Vasti, and Darekarwadi, with a combined population of 10,000 to 15,000 people. The bridge, which is in a precarious state, witnesses constant traffic, posing a significant risk to commuters.
Sule has appealed to the Collector of Pune Dr Suhas Diwase to take immediate action and order the repair of the bridge to prevent any potential disasters. Two days ago, Sule highlighted the issue of a road to the Muslim community's burial ground in Katraj, Pune. In 2000, the Pune Municipal Corporation allocated a site for the Muslim community's burial ground in Katraj.
However, no road has been provided to access the burial ground, causing significant difficulties for the community during last rites. Sule inspected the site on Monday and highlighted the issue. Despite repeated protests and inspections by the Municipal Corporation, the road remains unbuilt. Sule urged the Municipal Commissioner to personally look into the matter and take appropriate action.
