The railway authority, according to the locals, is repairing a number of stations but not the nearby roadways.
Dhritiraj Talukdar, president of the Pathsala Regional Students Union said, “We pay road tax and other taxes but in return we get such poor roads to ply on. It is barely impossible to walk and drive on these roads during the rainy season, especially at night.”
“We regularly face water logging problems during rainy seasons. Pathsala railway station falls under the ‘Amrit Bharat Station Scheme, Assam’ recently declared by the central government to develop the station. The authorities should do something to repair adjacent roads.” he added.
