Indian Grand Prix 2010: What if it rains ?
By Indian Grand Prix Admin on May 23, 2008 in Indian Grand Prix
Warning, This is a stupid rant !
Well Indian roads are notorious for cracking under the slightest of rain. If the road at the formula one track at Delhi/Noida/Sohna by Jaypee Associates is of the same Indian standards, we could be witness to so many suspension failures that it might set a new formula one record. Hopefully the company will do justice to its reputation and make good roads.
This post is inspired by the 5 days of continuous rain in New Delhi which has pretty much put all normal life out of gear in Delhi. The roads at many major intersections are full of potholes exposing the rampant corruption in road making activities in New Delhi. Recent RTI applications to catch people making a quick buck out of public money have not acted as a deterrent to corrupt contractors/sub-contractors who don?t use the proper Bitumen count while making the roads.
The only exception is the DMRC, which is the most efficient government body India has seen for a long long time. The DMRC is known for its efficient functioning, being less corrupt and beating deadlines by years. Living in a city where deadlines are extended like the rubber-bands on your morning newspapers, i was shocked to see a government organisation beating deadlines by huge margins. The DMRC also makes some roads which i believe come with a 10 year warranty. Although i wouldn’t like to invoke the warranty clause with an organisation that has given us so much, lets see if they stand the test.
So whats the purpose of this post ? Nothing, just through with exams today and wanted to write and write a lot
