Written by news2in

NAGPUR: Mayor Dayashankar Tiwari on Wednesday directed the civic administration to take stern action against private cement road contractors for various lapses.
Coming down heavily on cement road contractors, Tiwari said the open gap (interlocking) between two sides of cement roads may cause serious accidents.
“If private contractors are ignoring this, public works department of the civic body should blacklist them,” said the mayor.
Tiwari chaired a meeting on bad condition of roads in the city and to assess the possible risk of accidents especially during monsoon.
Deputy mayor Manisha Dhawde, ruling party leader Avinash Thakre, superintending engineer Vijay Pohekar, executive engineer Sonali Chavan, assistant municipal commissioners Prakash Warade among others attended the meeting.
The mayor also expressed anguish over potholed roads and asked the civic administration to carry out patchwork without delay and submit a report within seven days.
Tiwari also directed the administration to ensure roads leading to vaccination centres across the city should be pothole-free.
Tiwari also said zonal funds should be used for ensuring pothole-free roads in all 10 zones.
