Pune: Chhabeel Patel, Founder President of Akhil Nagarik Ekta Manch, Kondhwa, has launched a signature campaign to make the Kondhwa area free of traffic jams & issues.

Patel said, “Roads are the blood vessels for the everyday travelling of citizens. Just as a blocked blood vessel increases blood pressure throughout the body, similarly, a narrowed passage puts stress on commuting & everyday life of people in that area. Since Pune-Saswad is a main road, vehicles come at a high speed on this road. This road has an average daily traffic of one and a half lakh vehicles which includes industrial, residential, heavy, cars, two-wheelers, school buses, PMT buses, trucks etc. Citizens here have no means of travelling except coming to this road to go to several parts of Pune city. There is a traffic jam on this road for hours. This nuisance has become an integral part of daily life for citizens.”

As per further information, the following demands have been put forth before the administration with the signature, consent and blessing of all the citizens:

· Saswad highway road from Kondhwa Jyoti Hotel Chowk to Khadi Machine Chowk should be widened
