A heap of wrappers, bottles, expired medicine strips are lying on the floor.

Locals feel the land can be put to better use, and if there are any legal issues, then the BBMP should take steps to stop illegal activities here.

Residents, especially girls, are scared to use this road. Some bullies and youths are involved in taking drugs, or consuming liquor in the night, but neither the police department nor the BBMP have cracked down on the illegal activities going on here, they pointed out.
