An AJSU‑P functionary has urged authorities to implement corrective measures on accident‑prone stretches of national highways in Jharkhand.
AJSU‑P functionary has publicly called for corrective action on sections of national highways in Jharkhand that have been identified as accident hotspots. The demand follows growing concerns over road safety in the state, where recent statistics indicate a higher-than‑average number of traffic fatalities on certain highway stretches. The official appealed to the state transport department and the National Highways Authority of India to prioritize engineering fixes, improved signage, and regular maintenance to curb accidents. The party said it will monitor the response and may raise the issue in upcoming legislative sessions if prompt action is not taken.
