Kasauli’s Crumbling Dreams: Rs 3.52 Crore Road Re-inaugurated Amidst Public Outrage
A 3.5 km road in Kasauli, Himachal Pradesh, is set for a second inauguration on July 12, 2025. This comes after the initial opening in 2022 revealed shoddy workmanship.
The project, costing a hefty Rs 3.52 crore and funded by NABARD, is riddled with potholes. Locals report inadequate concrete and minimal bitumen usage.
Villagers express deep disappointment at the substandard quality. The re-inauguration highlights a glaring lack of accountability in public works.
This incident underscores the urgent need for stricter quality control in rural infrastructure projects. The wasted public funds and the inconvenience to the Kasauli residents raise serious questions about the effectiveness of oversight mechanisms. The matter demands a thorough investigation to prevent similar failures in the future.
