On record
A flyover meant to ease Kolhapur's growing traffic load received in-principle approval but has remained stuck for about two years because the municipal corporation has not appointed a design consultant, with disputes unresolved over who bears service-line relocation costs.
The official record states: "Municipal officials said "once a consultant is appointed in the upcoming general body meeting, work will commence," identifying consultant selection as the bottleneck holding up design and cost finalisation."

“Two years after approval, Kolhapur has not yet appointed the person whose job is to draw the thing.”
“Sat in the Tawde Hotel traffic and was told the flyover starts once the general body meeting picks a consultant.”
“Nobody can say what it will cost, because the estimate needs the design and the design needs a hiring decision.”
