Safety audit asap to prevent next flyover incident in Kolkata


Safety audit asap to prevent next flyover incident in Kolkata
The Issue
There are several flyovers and bridges in and near Kolkata which have aged. Immediately all these need to undergo audits to prevent Girish Park kind of incident. And the audits should be done by independent bodies from outside India who have no affiliation, whatsoever, to any political party in West Bengal. Once the audit teams put forward their recommendations, immediate action should be taken to follow the recommendations and engage construction companies with reputation irrespective of whether they are pricey or not. Enough with L1. The repair and revamps should not wait for the entire audit to complete. Audit and repair can go on in a staggered parallel manner.
