Koderma Villages Protest Poor Roads

Several villages in Koderma, Jharkhand, are planning to boycott upcoming elections to protest against the dismal condition of the roads in their area. Residents are frustrated with the authorities' failure to address the longstanding issue of poor road infrastructure, which has severely impacted their daily lives.

The deteriorating condition of roads in Koderma has hampered transportation, making it challenging for residents to commute to schools, hospitals, markets, and workplaces. Despite repeated appeals to local authorities for road repairs, villagers have seen little to no improvement, prompting them to take drastic measures.

The decision to boycott the polls reflects the villagers' determination to draw attention to their plight and compel authorities to prioritise road infrastructure development in Koderma. They believe that withholding their votes is a powerful means of expressing their dissatisfaction and demanding accountability from elected representatives.

The protest underscores the urgent need for the government to address the infrastructure deficit in rural areas like Koderma, where poor road conditions hinder socio-economic progress and exacerbate challenges related to accessibility and mobility. Improving road connectivity is essential for fostering development, enhancing livelihoods, and improving overall quality of life for residents.

As the boycott threat looms over the upcoming polls, it serves as a wake-up call for authorities to take immediate action to address the grievances of Koderma villagers and initiate measures to improve road infrastructure. Failure to do so could further erode public trust and exacerbate tensions between communities and the government.

Creativity is for Humans, Productivity is for Robots!

On most construction sites, the rhythm of progress is measured by the clang of steel, the hum of machinery and the sweat of thousands.

Behind the concrete and cables, an invisible force is taking hold: data.

This is not the construction of tomorrow; it is the architecture of today – built on ..
