Now, I hope that the remaining fully damaged road stretch (starting from Shree Datta Mandir and heading right up towards the Saligao seminary) will also be restored/hotmixed at the very earliest as the same is still seen giving nightmares to those working in Pilerne Industrial estate and those commuting to Betim/other places via this same road on a daily basis. I hope that MLA Kedar Naik will do the needful on this particular road stretch as well as the same has been badly waiting for some serious attention/complete restoration for the last two years in Saligao.
