Poor infrastructure and lack of civic amenities continue to pose problems for the residents of Ashraya Colony in Mahatma Gandhi Nagar, Hubballi. Apart from an acute shortage of drinking water, there is no connecting road between Hubballi and Dharwad for 30 years now, while absence of streetlights make commuting a challenge at night, with many of the 4,500 residents preferring not to step out in the dark for fear of snakes.
