‘Accidents rise by 10%, black spots not rectified': HC pulls up CG govt
Raipur: Data presented before the Chhattisgarh High Court by a court commissioner showed that road accidents in the state increased by 10.28% and fatalities rose by 9.50% in 2024 from 2023, while identified 'black spots' have not been rectified by authorities yet. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The rate of injuries too rose by 7.25%, according to the data presented by court commissioner Ravindra Sharma. The court commissioner highlighted that 'black spots' – accident-prone areas – identified in Raipur, Durg, Janjgir, Sakti, and Mungeli districts have not been rectified. He further noted a substantial increase in accidents in Korba and Surguja districts, by 25.44% and 42.25% respectively. Additional advocate general Shashank Thakur, representing the state, attributed the increase in Korba and Surguja to the high volume of dumpers carrying coal in these coal-bearing areas. A division bench, comprising Chief Justice Ramesh Sinha and Justice Arvind Kumar Verma, directed the secretary, department of transport, to file a personal affidavit addressing the issues raised, particularly regarding the lack of street lights, poor road conditions, and stray animals contributing to accidents. Sharma had drawn the court's attention to the illegal practice of transporting passengers in goods vehicles. Measures For Black Spots By NHAI In Their Affidavit In response to a previous directive, the regional officer, National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), Raipur, filed an affidavit detailing corrective measures taken and proposed for black spots on NHs 2021, 2022, and 2023. The NHAI also secured approval to initiate the bidding process for five new foot overbridges (FoBs) on Bilaspur-Pathrapali, at an estimated cost of Rs 17.95 crore. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now These FoBs are planned for Turkadih, Sendri, Madanpur, Melnadih & Karra villages, and Beltara town, all identified for high-pedestrian traffic and accident-prone areas. Dhiraj Kumar Wankhede, counsel for NHAI, pointed out that dust from coal and fly ash transportation by trucks, particularly on Korba-Raipur and Surajpur-Ambikapur roads, also contributes to accidents. He suggested that fly ash should be transported in capsules instead of open containers. HC directed the impleadment of NTPC, Seepat, and South Eastern Coalfields Limited (SECL), Bilaspur, as party respondents. The competent authorities of both companies have been instructed to file affidavits explaining the lack of precautions in coal and fly ash transportation. The secretary, department of transport, will also file an affidavit outlining measures taken to curb unsafe transportation practices by NTPC and SECL.
