In a poignant display of community support, locals in Nadubettu, Madippadi village, Sullia taluk, carried a sick elderly man on a chair due to the lack of road access to his house. The village, home to 14 families, faces significant challenges with its infrastructure, as the road connecting these residences is in a completely dilapidated state, making it nearly impossible for vehicles to navigate.
The road is riddled with large potholes, leading vehicle drivers to avoid the area altogether. Only during the summer months can jeeps and pickup trucks traverse this stretch, while the rainy season renders it completely inaccessible. The residents are left to shoulder the burden, carrying all agricultural produce and groceries to their homes on their heads, a testament to their resilience in the face of adversity.
This incident highlights the urgent need for infrastructure improvements in Madippadi village to ensure that residents have safe and reliable access to their homes, especially for those in need of medical assistance. The lack of proper roads not only affects transportation but also impacts the overall quality of life for the villagers.
