Gurugram (Paridhi Dhasmana), 12 April
Location: Dwarka Expressway
Date: April 11
Time: Around 6:00 PM
Scene:
On the Dwarka Expressway, a heavy signboard was found uprooted from the ground with a white car pinned beneath it. This scene speaks volumes on its own. The storm that occurred was not strong enough to single-handedly bring down such a massive signboard. Had the wind been solely responsible, all the other construction work and signboards along the Expressway would have similarly collapsed, and the hundreds of vehicles—including many lightweight ones—rushing along the road would have been seen drifting in the air. However, no such chaotic scene was observed. This clearly indicates that irregularities and negligence during the installation of the signboard likely played a major role in its collapse.
Key Questions Raised:
- Who is responsible for this accident?
- Will a fair investigation be conducted and action taken against the guilty?
- Will the concerned authorities, taking lessons from this mishap, conduct a thorough inspection of all heavy signboards along the Expressway to prevent any future accidents?
- Will such poor construction practices be allowed to become a hindrance to India’s vision of a developed country?
