A day after woman dies on the spot, citizens protest at Gangadham Chowk

Hindustan Times  

A day after a woman identified as Damayanti Solanki was crushed to death by a speeding truck at Gangadham Chowk, citizens and members of the Jain community on Thursday protested for more than two hours at Gangadham Chowk demanding that heavy vehicles be banned on Kondhwa Road during the daytime. Our demand is that these heavy vehicles should not be allowed during the daytime on this road and the Pune traffic police department should monitor the traffic daily.” Another local, Raju Jambhale, said, “One of my friends also met with an accident on this road a few months ago when a dumper struck him. The traffic police must stop the movement of heavy vehicles on this road…” Meanwhile, the traffic police assured that heavy vehicles will be banned on the road from 7 am to 9 pm and speed breakers will be installed. Also, heavy vehicles are banned during the daytime and strict action will be taken against those who violate the traffic rules,” said Rohidas Pawar, deputy commissioner of police.
