A legal case has been filed against the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) following the deaths of two Kanwariyas in Haridwar, Uttarakhand.
A court in Haridwar has accepted a complaint alleging that the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) was negligent in maintaining the highway where two Kanwariyas lost their lives. The incident, which occurred earlier this month, involved a traffic accident on a stretch of road managed by NHAI. Local authorities claim that inadequate signage and poor road conditions contributed to the tragedy. NHAI has yet to issue a formal statement, but a hearing is scheduled for next month to examine the allegations.
