NEW DELHI: A portion of Patparganj Marg caved in on Saturday, for the second time in a month. Interestingly, the same road was re-laid three months ago after Delhi Jal Board had repaired a water pipeline in the area. The residents have temporarily filled the pit with bricks to avoid any accidents, but the public works department (PWD) officials are yet to wake up to the situation.
"This is the second time that a portion of the same road has caved in. This shows the poor quality of the raw material used for the construction. The contractors are never penalized for doing such a shoddy job. How come they always get away, while we commuters and pedestrians have to pay the price?" asks BS Vohra, president, east Delhi RWAs Joint front.
