Burdwan Roads Crumble, Residents Face Pothole Peril

The roads in Burdwan, a town in India, are in terrible condition with lots of potholes.

This is especially bad after it rains, because the holes fill up with water and are hard to see, causing accidents.

Even ambulances are having trouble getting around.

People are upset and blaming the local government, which is run by one political party.

The government says it will fix the roads, but it might take a while.

Some people think corruption is a problem, and the opposition is trying to use this to criticize the ruling party.
