Roads and Infrastructure

Roads and Infrastructure

How many of us have experienced bad roads in our life? We are pretty sure most of us at some point in time would have discussed about bad roads, especially in a country like India. So, how do we address this issue? Whom should we contact? Which Government body should we approach to solve this issue? Is there a format to it? These are some questions every one of us will have. Through Karthavyam, students are finding answers to these questions. They are also looking at engaging with the community and Government through ‘Roads to Salvation’, a student initiative to address road safety and infrastructure problems. This page contains the student stories about this issue.
