RTI Application for Road Works

Bad roads are attributable to different causes. One of the main causes in bad riding is improper maintenance by public authorities such as NHAI in case of National Highways, State PWD in case of State Highways and major roads, Municipal Corporation / Municipality for roads within municipal limits, Gram Panchayat for Rural Roads etc.

Another reason for bad road is substandard asphalting work resulting in battered road surface and asphalting layer.

Another cause is road cutting or digging work undertaken by various agencies like State Electricity Boards or Power Distribution Companies for laying electric cables, telephone/Mobile operators for laying communication cables, private parties for laying or crossing water and sewerage pipelines. On completion of these works, these agencies do not fill up the pits properly or do not bituminize / cement the cut/digged surface.

For all these aspects, separate RTI Applications are required to be filed before the concerned public authority.
