Manish Nagar Underpass Opened by Frustrated Locals After Long Delays
Nagpur, India: In an unusual turn of events, residents of Manish Nagar took matters into their own hands and opened the newly constructed underpass, bypassing the official inauguration. Frustrated by the prolonged delays in its formal opening, locals decided to use the underpass to ease their daily commutes.
The New Manish Nagar underpass, a crucial infrastructure project aimed at improving connectivity and reducing traffic congestion, had faced repeated postponements in its inauguration despite being fully constructed. Residents, citing the inconvenience caused by the delay, took collective action to make the facility accessible.
"The underpass was ready for months, yet no steps were taken to make it operational. We had no choice but to open it ourselves," said a local resident.
Authorities have yet to respond to the incident, and questions remain about why the inauguration was delayed. Meanwhile, the community's proactive move has drawn attention to the need for timely action in infrastructure projects.
