Congress netas protest, sit on potholes on road
They stated that the protest was aimed at bringing 'good sense' to civic body.
The committee acting president Devendra Singh Yadav alleged that potholes on roads filled with water could be witnessed across the city. But civic body and its officials were 'sleeping like Kumbhakarna'. So, the action was taken to awaken them and instil wisdom.
Yadav criticised the city's deteriorating roads as a major problem. "When guests visit the country's cleanest city, they see these broken roads, which tarnishes Indore's image," he alleged.
IMC commissioner Shivam Verma said that ahead of the monsoon, patchwork started on roads but, at many places the work was on.

NDA outrage more meaningful if support on Manipur violence too: Dimple Yadav on cleric's remark
Samajwadi Party MP Dimple Yadav on Monday said the NDA's outrage over a cleric's derogatory comments against her would be more meaningful had similar solidarity been shown during incidents like the violence in Manipur. The cleric, Maulana Sajid Rashid, reportedly made a misogynistic comment about Yadav who was wearing a sari at a meeting in a mosque and compared her to another woman SP MP, Iqra Hasan, who had covered her head. The comment led to widespread condemnation on social media and in political circles, including from BJP's Bansuri Swaraj and Congress' Renuka Chowdhury. NDA MPs also held a protest outside Parliament in protest. 'It's good that action is being taken now…But it would have been better if similar protests and support had been visible when horrifying incidents like the one in Manipur came to light through footage on social media. Back then, if people had stood together the way they are now over the Operation Sindoor issue, it would have shown genuine concern,' Yadav said.
