The Story in Brief
Footpath shops on a Jobat bridge built for Rs 3 crore last year are causing safety worries, especially for schoolchildren. The bridge links the town to rural areas and is near several schools, a hostel, a clinic and government offices. The municipal council has fined some encroaching shops, but a recent joint operation could not clear the footpath fully.
School principal Ravikanta Verma has urged action. CMO Priya Mehda assured that all temporary encroachments would be removed after August 15. Former BJP district president Rakesh Agarwal said he would speak to officials. Freepressjournal.in reported the story.
The Indian Opinion
The CMO's promise to act after August 15 sounds conveniently distant. Locals have watched fines being collected without results. The real test is whether the administration follows through or the shops return. Will the collector enforce a timeline, or will the bridge remain a hazard until an accident forces a response?
