In a desperate attempt to garner attention from authorities, villagers in Rajasthan’s Churu have resorted to writing a letter in their own blood to seek a resolution to their plight.
“We wrote the letter with blood so that the administration can understand and feel our suffering, our pain,” one of the villagers expressed, highlighting their desperation.
For the past 19 months, the inhabitants of Rajasthan’s Dhirasar, Jasasar, Nakarasar, and Ramdevra have endured hardship due to a damaged road. The road, riddled with numerous broken sections, presents a constant risk of accidents.
“The distance from village Dhirasar to Churu is 35 kilometres, but it takes us more than 1 hour to cover a distance of 35 kilometres,” a villager revealed, emphasising the severity of the situation.
“The construction of this road started 19 months ago but the contractor left the road half-finished. Due to which the villagers are very upset. Vehicles passing through here get damaged and it also takes more time. In such a situation, the administration was informed several times from our side but the administration has not solved our problem till date. Today, hundreds of villagers from all four villages came to the collector to express our pain,” Sandeep Pandiya, one of the villages said.
“If our problem is not solved in time, then we will be forced to do a big agitation,” another warned.
The villagers are constantly struggling with this problem; many times the villagers have become victims of accidents while passing through this road, in such a situation there is a lot of anger among the villagers.
“On several occasions, when seriously ill persons are taken from here, the patient dies on the way, in such a situation, if the problem is not solved now, then we will be forced to do a big agitation,” a villager said.
The villagers claim that the contractor has high political influence, so the administration is not paying any attention.
