NHAI Suspends Project Director After Revising Position on Rajasthan NH-25 Rumble Strip Issue
The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) suspended a Project Director after initially denying concerns about faulty rumble strips at a median opening on National Highway-25 near Prathvipura village, Rajasthan. Social media users challenged NHAI's claim, sharing evidence that the authority's defense images were from a different location. Following a review, NHAI admitted incorrect information was shared and is undertaking corrective measures to meet road safety standards at the site.
