Noida: Posters of ‘missing’ MP, MLA come up, disappear in village

According to locals, the 1.2-km stretch on Surajpur-Bhati road has been in a pitiable condition for three years, with rain adding to the mess. Residents claimed the MP and MLA hadn’t visited the village. “We have written five letters to the Greater Noida authority over overflowing drain water…,” said a resident.

Both the MP and MLA denied claims that they had ignored the area. “How can they call us missing? I was in the region holding a press conference on Article 370. The party has just come to power and policies will be framed. Besides, this is an unauthorised locality and the resident responsible has apologised,” Sharma said.

Nagar said: “We have carried out development work worth Rs 1.8 crore. If we were so lax in development, we would not have got so many votes from Dadri in assembly or general elections.”
