The national highway work is on on. The roads are in a mess with the contactors not bothered about keeping ways or even providing proper signs for commuters in general.



But this case takes the proverbial cake.


A way leading to a old ill man house has been demolished by MVR contractor while widening the national highway at Torxem in Pernem.


After upraor he has made a makeshift staircase leading to his house.


The work of widening national highway is undergoing along the Torxem-Mopa.


However, looking at the stairs its difficult to make out whether this staircase leads towards the house or a fort.


The man staying in this house is ill.


If he needs to visit doctor he has no proper road or way to go out.


Local want the Chief Minister personally visit and see the situation as the local MLA has completely turned blind eye.


Every commuter passing on Perenm to Patradevi highway is cursing the contractor. There is a reason behind it.


In this present scenario of highway looks like a moonscape.


The works is going on for the past several years.


There is no service road, no sign board and there are also hazardous turns and bone breaking potholes.


Locals are angry and are swearing at their local MLA – also the tourism minister - and the contractor
