A road under construction in Bihar has become the talk of the town. The project, costing ₹100 crore, is part of a road being built from Patna to Gaya. The most striking feature of the road, near the DM office in Jehanabad, is the trees standing right in the middle of it. This unusual construction has left everyone who passes by astonished. The presence of trees in the middle of the road poses a significant safety risk, potentially leading to accidents and even fatalities.
Photos and videos of the road have gone viral on social media. Local residents have expressed concern, noting that while vehicles can navigate the road during the day, the absence of streetlights at night makes the trees a major hazard. Several two-wheelers have already collided with these trees.
The Road Construction Department, unable to obtain permission from the Forest Department to cut down the trees, proceeded with the road construction, navigating around the trees. This has resulted in the trees becoming obstacles in the middle of the road. The department stated that they had requested a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Forest Department for tree removal but have yet to receive approval.
