@dmuthuk@omjasvinMD We the people are lauding what is called 'standard commisions'!! Shame that we are in such situation. Only saving grace is minister accepting it. One doubt is with raw material procmnt by govt, is the commission process moving to another block? Minister has to keep an eye there.
@ChristinMP_ A direction from top officials for a routine work. Tells a lot about work culture. These tasks should be completed without directions by Engineers and contractors.
@ChristinMP_ Has all due diligence done and all other available modes like suburban rail and RRTS considered in this DPR? Something feels messed in design.
@vasudevg@ChristinMP_@comm_blr_south@GBA_office@DCPSouthTrBCP This should have been foreseen by designers of this flyover. It is a basic logic not to land near signals. Either transport planners were not consulted during design or they were overlooked. We cannot feign ignorance on design issues.
@bengalurupost1@Tejasvi_Surya Appropriate question would be whether the double decker flyover at Ragigudda serve it's purpose, as we see traffic is shifted to another location? If no, as a policy decision no double decker flyover should be approved in future.
@solidview Not having elected city council gives no one the responsibility of this mess. Creates perfect breeding ground for corruption. When the politicians who are responsible for clearing the mess, gain from the mess, why will they clear it?
@Arappor@V_Senthilbalaji Well done. Looks like clear case of collusion for wrongful gain. Justice should be given quickly. Ashamed about our IAS officers, ministers involved in this.
Welcome deployment. Any measure protecting lives on Indian roads is appreciated. This should be extended to all the concessionaires and form a safety culture @MORTHIndia@PIB_India
Truck Technology Is Protecting Workers and Road Users on Indian Highways
As the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (@MORTHIndia) actively expands National Highways, its focus is not just on faster connectivity but equally on bringing safety standards to a global level. Infrastructure development today is not only about building wider roads; it is about protecting every life that travels on them.
With this vision, advanced safety systems like Truck Mounted Attenuators (TMAs) have been deployed on many sections of the highways, and these global practices are saving many lives, including those of on-ground workers and highway users.
Protecting Those Who Work on the Roads
Behind every highway upgrade and maintenance activity are hundreds of workers who operate in challenging and high-risk environments. Maintenance and construction zones on busy highways are among the most vulnerable areas, where speeding vehicles and limited visibility can lead to severe accidents.
To reduce these risks, MoRTH has consistently encouraged concessionaires to adopt advanced safety interventions across highway projects. Responding to this vision, one of the concessionaires has started taking a proactive step by deploying Truck Mounted Attenuators with integrated wig-wag warning systems.
This concessionaire operates and manages 9 National Highway projects spanning a cumulative length of 681 kilometres across Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat, making this deployment a significant milestone in highway safety management.

@UpdatesChennai People who opposed Chennai Salem expressway or any national expressway project in TN and asking why is it needed, should see this. The irony is after suffering, they will be voting for same government responsible. Time to wake up. Time for development.

As a user, i consider 2 criterias crucial - affordable last mile connectivity and fares compared to existing modes.
Metros will become super useful if last mile connectivity is addressed. Author concern on demand during planning versus actual does not concern common users now.
Lucknow no longer has those old, run-down diesel vehicles on the roads. Speaking particularly about auto-rickshaws, from what I observed while travelling around the city for the past three to four hours, almost all of them now seem to be electric. They not only look good but are also better for the environment, as they don’t cause noise or air pollution. The best part is that even at 10 PM, there is still a lot of traffic, with people out and about and a lively atmosphere all around. #Lucknow or rather the #UttarPradesh we once knew—has completely changed now. #rslive
Mumbai Pune missing link expressway project- Road laying and final paint work underway on last remaining section of the project the 650-meter-long cable stayed bridge also India's tallest cable bridge. Deadline May 2026. (📹Civil engineering point)
@NewIndianXpress It takes audacity to post a video clip and quote something which was never said in the video. Poor reporting. All those commenting loosely are mislead and exposing themselves.
Today a court in Madurai sentenced all 9 police officers to death.
Their crime was murder.
Their victims were Jayaraj and Bennix.
A father and son who kept their mobile shop open 45 minutes past curfew in June 2020.
They were beaten for 7 hours through the night.
Forced to wipe their own blood off the floor with their clothes.
Jayaraj had 17 injuries. Bennix had 13.
Both died within 3 days.
The judge called it rarest of rare.
Today India told every police officer in this country.
Nobody is above the law.
Not even the law itself.
Selvarani waited 2192 days for this moment so as we.
