Meteorological Department has predicted five days of rain in Gujarat. In Ahmedabad, there are incidents of road subsidence during monsoon. As a result, the municipal corporation system decided to install public warning boards on the roads in view of the possibility of road subsidence at around 70 places which have been excavated for water and drainage work during the current year. However, now that monsoon has started, public warning boards have not yet been installed by the municipal corporation system.
So motorists, if it rains, now you should go out on the road at your own risk and be careful.
There is every possibility of the road sinking when the vehicle passes through the water and drainage works in various areas of the city by the municipal corporation system.
After excavating the road, it is filled up and the road is built again, but sometimes there are cases of subsidence of the road due to heavy rains during the monsoon. As water and drainage lines have been excavated on about 70 roads, boards were going to be installed there, but when Divya Bhaskar checked, boards were not installed anywhere on most of the roads. No public warning boards have been put up yet.
On one hand, rain has been predicted in the city for the next five days. If the rain water fills, then there is every possibility of the road sinking when the vehicle passes through such a road.

Decision to locate excavated roads and install boardsIt was decided by the Municipal Corporation system to locate such excavated roads and install boards there as part of pre-monsoon operations.
These boards should have been installed before June 15 as part of pre-monsoon operations, but even as it is June 26 today, there are around 70 such roads, where no boards have been installed anywhere.
So this shows clear negligence and lax functioning of the municipal corporation system. There are only 10 to 12 such roads in each zone, but the officials are not paying attention to this matter.

Boards have not been installed anywhere.
Officials of the municipal corporation system and BJP officials say on the one hand, now the pattern of rain has changed and it rains anywhere and anytime.
So, as a precautionary measure, quick monsoon operation should be done to avoid harming the citizens, instead of that, no such boards have been installed anywhere today. The municipal corporation system is waiting for the drivers to suffer.
