Ainthapali to Remed Road: A Dangerous Stretch
The stretch of road between Ainthapali and Remed has become notorious for accidents that frequently claim lives. Despite numerous incidents, no effective measures have been taken to prevent future accidents. Over the last six months, there have been more than 30 accidents on this road, with many resulting in fatalities and others injuring numerous people. However, the police and regional transportation authorities seem unconcerned about these incidents.
Local residents are becoming increasingly concerned as trucks and trailers park along the service road, causing significant disruptions. Some garages have even encroached onto the road, exacerbating the situation. Despite this, the police are silent, and the regional transportation department appears to be turning a blind eye. Although the transportation department conducts regular inspections, the ongoing issues call into question their effectiveness.
Accidents, both major and minor, are common on this road, often caused by disorganized traffic and illegal parking. The frequent mishaps have left the locals concerned about their safety on this perilous stretch.
