The gallery-like structure which is open from all ends posed a great threat to life as many onlookers, youths often visited the area to capture the magnificent view of the highway from their mobile phones. But this adventure could be a potential threat. The residents of Bavdhan took up the issue with the NHAI, PMC and many relevant authorities seeking their help in covering the gallery-like structure. After months of follow ups, the authorities have now taken up the task of installing safety nets.
Chandni Chowk has turned into a picnic spot for commuters with open drinking and life-threatening behavior. NHAI must install nets in open areas to ensure safety. Video shared by BCF member Manish deo @bavdhancitizens #ChandniChowk #PublicSafety #pune @NHAI_Official pic.twitter.com/OqTxp5EYyX
