Frequent digging of roads in Panaji a nuisance

Panaji roads can be compared to a circus.  Poor condition of the roads in the city is worrying the road users in Panaji.  But after completion of the works, the roads were not re-laid causing inconvenience to the road users.  Commuters and passers-by are suffering every day due to the unplanned digging and renovation work of roads. The digging of the road for work at Dhanalakshmi Nagar has damaged water pipeline and flooded a low-lying house which is nothing but sheer negligence and on the other hand causing residents to suffer further with no water supply.  After the work is done, the roads are given a patchy touch-up with no proper asphalting work.  If an agency starts digging a road, immediately another one fills it to be dug by another, which leaves the road unmotorable.  The condition of roads is deplorable with countless potholes.  The digging of roads has become a common feature in Panaji.  It's disgraceful that the government puts people in extreme danger while driving on the roads.
