Sinkhole appears on road laid for Modi’s visit to Bengaluru

Barely days after many roads got a facelift ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to the city recently, a sinkhole formed on one of the newly-laid roads.

As citizens started venting their ire on social media, not only did the Chief Minister order a probe, but following social media posts tagging the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) too has also sought a report, sources in the civic body said.

Mr. Modi travelled by the road on June 20. The sinkhole appeared on the road ahead of Nagarabhavi Circle near the Dr. B. R. Ambedkar School of Economics University, Bengaluru (BASE), campus that Mr. Modi inaugurated recently.
