Hyderabad: BJP MLAs Rakesh Reddy (Armur) and Dhanpal Surya Narayana Gupta (Nizamabad Urban) urged the state government to complete the pending Road Over Bridge (ROB) works in Nizamabad district. They raised the demand on Friday while protesting during Chief Minister Revanth Reddy’s visit to the district.

The two BJP legislators, along with district president Dinesh Kulachari and local leaders, tried to meet the Chief Minister. They wanted to brief him on major public issues in the district. However, police stopped them near the BJP office.
The leaders said they planned to explain the problems caused by the delay in ROB works at Adavi Mamidipalli, Madhav Nagar, and Arsapalli.
