Meanwhile, the pothole menace in Telangana does not seem to end. Earlier this year, a woman in Telangana sat in a pothole filled with muddy water to highlight the poor condition of roads in the city. She claimed that her children suffered injuries after falling into potholes, adding that the stretch from Nagole to Uppal has as many as 30 potholes. "Where is our road tax and municipal tax," her placard read.
