Rampant road encroachment in Yelahanka New Town
June 5, 2021

Dear Sir

Subject: Rampant road encroachment in Yelahanka New Town

I am writing this letter as a concerned and aggrieved citizen to request timely action on the issue of road encroachment and providing safe and efficient roads. Residents of Yelahanka New Town have the menace of road encroachment to a whole new level making commuting an arduous task.

The road is now only 1/2 the width of what it's supposed to be. It may be hard to believe but the residents of Yelahanka New Town have constructed ramps encroaching the road almost completely encroached on their half of the road . If the road is viewed from the beginning then it's quite obvious as the road is wider at the beginning and gradually tapers in accordance with the plot owner's audacity.
Second, there are People have extended their houses on the road and then put additional ramps as well so much so that these roads are haphazardly bulging and tapering. In addition, residents treat the roads as their personal parking space.

Sir, it is becoming a nightmare to commute here, one which is growing more horrible by the second. Just 10 years ago, these roads were clear and wide. But with no one to stop their greed and disregard for fellow citizens', many residents are growing more and more audacious by the second. Please Sir take timely action otherwise the very purpose of roads is defeated.

Regards
Yours truly,
Aggrieved resident of Yelahanka New Town
