KOLKATA: The rain that have opened fresh craters on some roads and washed away the patchwork on others may push back the Kolkata Municipal Corporation’s pre-Mahalaya October 2 deadline to complete all post-monsoon road repairs. Police in desperation on Tuesday arranged for rubbish, mostly construction debris, to fill up the big craters that have appeared on Diamond Harbour Road and Taratala Road.
KMC said it needed 10 days without rain to complete the road repairs and kept its units on stand-by hoping for the weather to clear up. There is barely two weeks left for Mahalaya.
