The recently constructed Ram Van Gaman Path near Shringverpur Dham in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh has caved in before its inauguration. This road has caved in not at one but at many places, which clearly shows that corruption has been done on a large scale. The special thing is that not a little but Rs 4,400 crore has been spent on building the road.

 

Meanwhile, a strange statement from Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya has come to light regarding this. Keshav was seen saying as if it is not a big deal for a road built at a cost of Rs 4,400 crore to sink before its inauguration.

'If a road is built it will sink'

When journalists in UP asked Deputy Chief Minister Keshav about the sinking of the road, he said, 'Hey man, if the road is built, it will sink… if it sinks, it will be built. This is a normal process. If there is so much rain, then what are the roads and big bridges? Just now there was such a huge flood in Nepal that many bridges were washed away. That's a different thing…'

 

 

 

will take action against the culprits

He further said that if the quality of the road is bad then it will be investigated and action will be taken against the culprits. Also said that if the road sinks, we will repair it.
