In the midst of convenience lies a growing concern at Bandha Road Exit near Indraprastha Apartment, a crucial link between Indira Nagar and Samta Mulak Parivartan Sthal. Particularly alarming is the state of the exit adjacent to Indraprastha Apartment—what was once a smooth passage now poses threats.

With a deteriorating road, the perilous proximity to an open drain makes this route not only unhygienic but also hazardous for commuters. A mere misstep could lead to potential accidents, drawing attention to the urgent need for repairs and attention to this deteriorating stretch.

Apart from the turn with the open drain and damaged road, the rest of the lane, too, doesn't paint a pretty picture. You'll find abandoned vehicles, plastic and jute bags, and waste dumped throughout the stretch. In addition to that, you'll also find vehicles parked on the road, along with vendors with their thelas, which makes the stretch even more congested.

As you can see in the pictures, the exact spot where the road is damaged has become a temporary waste dump as the drain was being cleaned at the time. But nothing as yet has been done to repair the road, which is in such a state that it can completely break down anytime.

A lot of people take the Bandha route to avoid the congestion at Polytechnic Chauraha to reach Gomti Nagar, and Ring Road. Additionally, all the exits on the route are not well-lit. And a road in such a condition coupled with the open drain next to it poses a serious threat of a mishap.
