Following directions from Mandsaur Collector Aditi Garg, officials of the Madhya Pradesh Road Development Corporation (MPRDC) and the toll company inspected the affected stretch on Thursday. Municipal Council Chairperson Manoj Shukla and civic officials also visited the site.
During the inspection, MPRDC officials said the Municipal Council must construct drainage channels on both sides of the road and remove encroachments that obstruct water flow before a permanent solution can be implemented. They added that they could raise the road by four inches after ensuring proper drainage to prevent future waterlogging.
Shukla said residents have faced the problem for the past three years and assured them that district authorities would soon hold a meeting to work out a permanent solution.
