Mangaluru, Nov 3: Touched by the honesty and initiative taken by traffic policeman Puttarama, who climbed up the lorry and unloaded the mud with a shovel to fill potholes near Bunts Hostel in city, will be honoured by TWS and Civic Issue Group.
The policeman did this special act after the repeated appeals to fill the same with the civic administrations went unanswered.
TWS and Civic Issues Group has decided to honour him with a cash gift of Rs 10,000.
"The act of traffic policeman Puttarama has put the people's representatives like MP, MLA, corporators and officials of MCC to shame. It has been repeatedly seen that the administration does not respond to the urgent needs of the civilians, especially the commuters. Hope the act of Puttarama will open their eyes and there will be more actions from the MCC to address the various issues in the city," said a statement from TWS and Civic Issues Group.
Puttarama, the constable who showed his dedication in trying to help in whatever small way he can to improve the conditions of the public, will be honoured by Joe Gonsalves, on behalf of the TWS and Civic Issues Group on Monday, November 4.
