Once known for tree-lined avenues, craters define these posh areas in Bhopal now

BHOPAL: Once regarded as one of Bhopal’s most serene and well-planned residential areas, the localities surrounding Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) have been severely affected by civic woes and monsoon.Rainfall has damaged internal roads across the township, leaving residents and commuters to navigate deep potholes, muddy stretches and waterlogged patches on a daily basis.Known for its wide, tree-lined avenues, organised housing sectors and peaceful surroundings, the BHEL township was once considered a model residential zone.However, the condition of its roads has sharply deteriorated in recent months.
