National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) has ordered Ahmedabad-based private firm to fill up potholes along NH-33 stretch between Dimna Chowk and Pardih in Mango on an urgent basis to avoid inconvenience to commuters during puja festivity.
The directive asks the private firm to use all its resources to fill up the craters and potholes using stone chips for the time being before puja so that people do not face hardship in commuting during puja.
“We have asked the private firm officials who said that their work was hampered by heavy vehicles parked illegally alongside NH-33 and also encroachment on drainage along NH-33 which leads to water logging aggravating the problem. However, we are trying our best to ensure that potholes are filled up before puja,” an official.
