Falaknuma: The people of the city are gearing up to celebrate the Bonalu festival, but, the residents of Renuka Colony in Falaknuma have been facing hardships due to the pending road works in the area for last 10 days.

The residents of Renuka Colony near Rajannabowli under Jangamet division in Falaknuma have been filing many complaints to the civic authority about the laying of new CC road in area. "Around 10 days back, the road has been dug-up for the laying of new road and now after a week, there is no response from the civic officials for the further works and the works were left pending.
