Silchar-Dolu road falls apart in 2 years; contractor accused of corruption

The road connecting Silchar to Dolu via Khalil Bagan has experienced severe deterioration just two years after its construction, causing significant hardship for local residents. The once-new road is now plagued with numerous large potholes and puddles, making travel difficult and unsafe for commuters.

Concerns have been raised regarding the transparency and quality of work by contractor Dipankar Deb. Despite multiple complaints about the road's substandard condition during its construction phase, the contractor's team reportedly failed to address these issues. The poor quality of work has contributed to the road's rapid decline, raising questions about the oversight and accountability in the construction process.

Built with substantial government funds, the road's current state is seen as a clear indicator of significant corruption. The lack of proper maintenance and the evident discrepancies in the construction quality highlight a broader issue of mismanagement and financial misconduct in public infrastructure projects.
