Pune's roads have deteriorated significantly following the heavy rains, with many major routes riddled with potholes. This has created hazardous conditions for commuters and is causing severe traffic jams during peak hours across the city.
Amid this, filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri on Sunday shared a video on X (formerly Twitter) highlighting the deplorable state of a road in the Hinjawadi area. "This is Pune’s Hinjawadi—India’s top IT centre. Three lakh top IT engineers reach here every day to work in 200 top IT companies, generating software exports worth ₹1,60,700 crore and showcasing India’s IT prowess to the world," he wrote.
Meanwhile, several X users commented on Agnihotri's post and demanded immediate repair of the roads in Pune.
One user wrote, "Not only Hinjawadi, but all areas of Pune city are filled with potholes. Not a single road in Pune is free from them."
"Despite so much potential, this is how India lets itself down time and again. High time some accountability is fixed. Terrible," said another user.
"The roads are in critical condition. Hope the Maharashtra state government takes immediate action to resolve this," wrote a third user.
