India, Oct. 27 -- Sir,

It has been years since these three main arterial roads in Hebbal Industrial Area have been in a state of total disrepair. The authorities have proven that they don't care.

1) The road linking the Outer Ring Road (ORR) to Automotive Axles via Damden Apartments no longer exists.

2) The Infosys Road linking the ORR to Infosys - deep potholes begin as soon as you leave the ORR.

3) The junction at Marc Batteries and Theorem, dug up for drainage work, was never repaired. Riddled with potholes as deep as 6 inches brings all the traffic to a grinding halt.

It is time for the employees of industries who have to endure this nonsense daily to protest and bring the authorities concerned to the spot and get them to repair ...
