The residents of Manikonda are unhappy with the ineffective municipality administration. Recently, they have created the petition #IASforManikonda. “Without an able administrator preferably an IAS officer in the rank of Addl. Collector, there is a rampant corruption, builder bureaucrat nexus, illegal occupation in parks, open spaces, encroachments on endowment lands and roads, etc,” read the petition.
Manikonda is one of the fastest growing municipalities in Hyderabad with a budgetary allocation of over Rs 100 crores per annum. The majority of people living here are software engineers or cine workers.
In 2018, Manikonda was converted into a municipality by merging three gram panchayats – Manikonda, Alkapur and Neknampur.Related Stories
Resident here says that the foothpaths of Alkapur Township in Manikonda are already encroached by street vendors, plants or open pipeline setup and there is no space for pedestrians on road.
Connectivity is the big issue in the Manikonda Municipality. Public transport is hardly available and people use cabs or private vehicles to commute. A lot of roadsides in Manikonda have become dump yards where pigs find their food.
The residents here feel that there is no one to hear and resolve their problems and to enforce rules and regulations. Resident here says that they keep writing to commission and raise the complaint on the buddy app but they never get a proper response. Interestingly, the citizens buddy app just closes the complaint that the residents file by informing them that the TPO is on leave or has been transferred.
