Construction should have been done at night: CPI-M

March 31, 2016 18:11

"Did the flyover's construction flout Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission's norms," asks CPI-M MP Mohammed Salim? "Vivekananda flyover is located at Posta, one of the most congested areas of Kolkata. Any construction in such an area should be done at night," Salim said on Thursday afternoon.

"It's time we asked the engineers and supervisors if they were pressured to work overtime flouting the norms of urban construction," the CPI-M veteran added.
