His action had happened late in the night when the city was silent and many youngsters were inspired by this and had come forward to help him in closing the potholes.
Now, Kochi Mayor Toni Chammini has criticized Jayasurya's action as a publicity stunt. The Mayor has made his stance determined by saying that though he appreciates Jayasurya's social commitment; his efforts could backfire if the maintenance of the roads is not done in a scientific way. The TV channels have started debates on who is right in this issue.
Meanwhile director B Unnikrishnan came up with wholehearted retain for Jayasurya in his Facebook page saying that what Jayasurya did the other day was an act of symbolic protest. The Cochin Mayor's response to it shows how unimaginative and insensitive most of our political leadership are.
