Jaipur : Urban Development Minister Jhabar Singh Kharra said during a meeting in the Secretariat that if the roads of the capital are in the Defect Liability Period (DLP) and have become damaged, then blacklist the contractors working on them. Apart from this, what did the quality checking officers do? What was their role? Action should be taken against them as well.
Instructions for action on quality checkers as well
He talked to the officials of the responsible departments about the damaged roads in the city due to rain. When the issue of quality of roads built by the Public Works Department came up in the meeting, the minister ordered an investigation. The minister even said in the meeting that tax is being paid from the pocket of the poor man and we are not providing facilities to him.
Roads will be built before Diwali- Kharra
The minister said that a plan for sewerage and drainage will be made and future work will be done accordingly. Road work will be done soon. Roads will be built before Diwali. First the main roads and then the colony roads will be built. Earlier in the meeting, officials said that Rs 248 crore will be spent on road repair, construction, road lights and drain construction in the city.
Potholes are being filled by road ambulance
Here, JDA has started the work of filling potholes on roads with the help of Inferred Recycling-Mobile Machine (Road Ambulance). Patchwork of 2.0×1.0 square meter is being done with this technique. After cleaning the road, bitumen mix is put in the pot holes and it is heated with a heater at 130 to 180 degrees. The road is ready in a short time. If JDA officials are to be believed, this machine was used by JDA about 11 years ago.
