A tragic accident on the Wada Bhiwandi Highway has reignited public anger over India's worsening road infrastructure, after a commuter died upon hitting a pothole. Residents in Nashik and surrounding areas continue to face daily hazards on pothole-ridden roads. In a symbolic protest, Congress youth workers in Nashik garlanded potholes to draw attention to the chronic neglect. Despite repeated promises by authorities, the dangerous condition of roads remains unchanged, turning commutes into nightmares and, increasingly, costing lives.
