Crater In Delhi! Massive Road Chunk Falls

On Wednesday, a sewage main ruptured and collapsed a major road in Janakpuri, West Delhi, causing traffic gridlock. Luckily, no one was hurt. Authorities immediately barricaded the Janakpuri Road cave-in location and began repairs. “The road belongs to us, but the pipeline leakage caused the collapse,” said a Public Works Department representative. Delhi Jal Board water and sewer pipelines go along this section.

We detected sewer line leaks and bubbling for some time, which caused the cave-in.” “The pipeline burst because there was no outlet for the water,” the official said. The Delhi Jal Board is investigating. After the sewage line is entirely repaired, the PWD will rectify the huge road hole.”

Traffic police tweeted, “Due to a road cave-in near Possangipur park, traffic movement is restricted in both directions from Joginder Singh Marg towards Possangipur Village and vice versa.”

Another road collapse in Najafgarh earlier in the day stranded a crane. Traffic police and authorities cordoned off Dichaon Enclave. The traffic police reported congestion on the Pankha route in Janakpuri and the route from Mangolpuri to Janakpuri.

After the event, Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva slammed Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. Sachdeva said, “Three cave-ins occurred in a day… The Chief Minister’s fraudulent claims of making Delhi’s roadways European have been revealed.
