Pune's New Flyover Cracks in 3 Days: Quality & Safety Under Scrutiny

• Pune's newly inaugurated double-decker flyover at University Chowk developed cracks in its parapets and pillars just three days after its online inauguration by CM Devendra Fadnavis.
• The flyover, meant to ease traffic from University Chowk to Aundh-Shivajinagar, also has life-threatening potholes, raising serious concerns about its construction quality and citizen safety.
• Corporator Sunny Nimhan criticized PMRDA officials for significant discrepancies in road levels and chamber placements, while Architect Dr. Vishakha Ragade warned of potential major accidents.
• Questions are being raised about the hasty inauguration without a structural audit, overlooking technical errors, and lacking an Occupancy Certificate (OC).
• PMRDA has ordered chief engineers to submit a report within seven days, amidst fears that the project's negligence could endanger Pune residents' lives.
