Infrastructure for public benefit!

Our Government is continuously working on several projects to improve all aspects of our lives. One of the major factors that affects all of us is infrastructure.

Projects like building roads, bridges, airports, etc. boost tourism, improve connectivity between places, and ensure access to essential services. Projects like the Ram Mandir attract tourists and pilgrims, helping the local economy and preserving cultural heritage.

These developments are meant to keep our society connected and make life better for people in India.

Some recent infrastructure damages.

During heavy rainfall, a section of Delhi Airport's Terminal 1 roof collapsed. Sadly, this led to the death of one person and left several injured.

The Atal Setu, India’s longest sea bridge connecting Mumbai to Navi Mumbai was inaugrated in Janaury 2024 but has already developed cracks.

The roof of the newly inaugurated Ram Mandir started leaking due to heavy rainfall. The road leading to the temple is also damaged, with many potholes after the rain.

Who is responsible for this?

When we leave our houses, we expect a basic standard of safety. We don’t expect the bridge our car is on to collapse or that we will be injured at the airport due to a falling roof.

The responsibility for ensuring infrastructure safety lies with the government at both state and central levels.

Money paid by taxpayers funds these projects. So, we deserve good quality infrastructure that helps improve our lives.
