Road built, damaged, rebuilt, damaged again; 10 times in 12 days; 2 engineers suspended in Gwalior
BHOPAL: Two executive engineers were suspended for negligence following the repeated collapse of the newly constructed Chetakpuri (Mahal) Road in Gwalior. The road, built at a cost of Rs 4.09 crore, has collapsed as many as 10 times within 12 days, raising concerns about construction quality. While the engineers were suspended for poor supervision, no action has been taken against the company responsible for the construction, sources say. GMC has paid Rs 2 crore to the company for related storm water drainage work. Experts attribute the repeated collapses to three main issues: use of clay instead of gravel for filling trenches, inadequate compaction, and the absence of vibrating roller technology required for proper soil compaction. AAP workers led by district president Amitabh Pandey staged protest and were later detained by the police.

The woman took the children to a Gurdwara in Fatehgarh Sahib and later sent them to their maternal grandparents' house in Rupnagar district while she went missing. Despite her parents assuring the husband that she did not come to them, he suspected she had eloped, Gurpreet Singh, SHO of Bhadson police station, said. On July 3, the 43-year-old man's body was found hanging at his home. His wife had allegedly ended her life two days earlier, with her body retrieved from the Bhakra canal, but he was unaware of this, Singh said. A case has been registered, and further investigations are underway, Singh added. Discussing suicides can be triggering for some. However, suicides are preventable.
