Activist in Hyderabad protests poor road condition with ‘Pothole Asana’

In a unique protest against poor road conditions, city activist Vinay Vangala stood in a yoga pose over a large pothole in Serilingampally, calling out the GHMC’s inaction.

Holding the pose for several minutes, Vinay dubbed the protest ‘Pothole Asana’, highlighting the pain commuters face every day.

“Why spend on a chiropractor when our roads offer free spinal adjustments with every ride?” he said



sarcastically.

The protest was aimed specifically at GHMC’s Serilingampally zone officials, including Executive Engineer Indira and Deputy Engineer Sridevi. Vinay said it’s been over two months since residents raised complaints, yet no action has been taken.

He criticised GHMC’s claims of filling 7,000 potholes across the city, saying many key roads in Serilingampally remain broken, and internal colony roads are completely ignored.
