Hyderabad: Several ex-servicemen from Sainkpuri and Yapral, at a meeting with defence minister Nirmala Sitharaman, complained that more roads in their localities have been closed by the Army despite her order to open them for the public to commute. They also appealed to her not to give away Bison Polo Ground to the government, as there was no need to build a new secretariat.
Members of Federation of Northeastern Colonies of Secunderabad, who were present at the meeting said the decision to reopen Cantonment roads has reduced the inconvenience caused to the commuters and the decision was in line with the applicable law. They, however, said the order has been implemented only partially. They said several roads in Yapral, Bolarum and the interconnecting road between Alwal and Bolarum have been closed for the civilians.
The FNECS members told the defence minister that all these inconveniences must be removed, as the civilians, especially those in Yapral and Bollaram, have to take a long detour to reach the main road.
