Fear of accidents due to waterlogging in places: Heavy vehicles stuck on the dilapidated highway due to rain

Heavy rains led to erosion of not only the city but also national and state highways. Due to this, the transport industry connected to Kandla and Mundra has also been hit at various levels. Vehicles coming from or coming from here were stuck or human energy and time were wasted, besides the possibility of accidents. Transport vehicles belonging to Gandhidham, Kandla Mundra were stranded on the National Highway VIII, the main road heading towards Rajkot, Ahmedabad and Kathiawar. Along with the heavy rains, the condition was very bad due to large potholes in the roads, as if the roads had become like a cartridge. Heavy vehicles slowed down and some vehicles were seen getting stuck in potholes. As a result, the transport and transporters had to suffer losses. At a time when the entire transport industry of Kutch is running a 'No Road, No Toll' campaign, the rains have made the situation worse and there were questions about the claims made about the quality of the roads. Fear of small motorists due to heavy vehicles Drivers of cars or other similar small vehicles said they were afraid to drive next to vehicles with trailers, containers or tankers that were unbalanced due to potholes. He said there was a situation when big potholes would fall and heavy vehicles could fall on them. Such a dilapidated condition of the national highway had created an atmosphere of resentment for the authority.
