Sect followers fill potholes

Ludhiana: The followers of Namdhari sect on Satyrday took upon themselves to improve the road condition near Sherpur Chowk on the national highway as commuters had been facing tough time due to potholes. They have started the work of filling these from SPS Hospital to Sherpur chowk.
Sukhwinder Singh Lyallpuri, one of the sect followers, said there were big potholes on this service road and whenever there was rain, there was water-logging, causing people difficulties. He claimed that they had raised the matter with mayor Balkar Sandhu and MC commissioner Pardeep Sabharwal as well but they did not provide any relief, and the NHAI was not paying attention towards the problem. He said they had just filled the potholes and tried to level the road with the help of road roller and if situation did not improve they would start its construction.
