On record

A newly constructed road patch near Devi Lal Chowk in Jind town caved in during rainfall, the latest in a pattern of repeated washing-away and sinking of new roads in the town that residents say points to systemic quality failures rather than one-off bad luck.

The official record states: "Not specified officially; residents blamed "poor work of earth-filling and substandard material," and a local NGO president called for a probe into repeated road failures."

“The newest road patch in town caved in with the rain, as the last several had. Residents keep a list.”— Blunderlust Editorial Desk
