The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has raised significant safety concerns regarding the ongoing pipeline work on the Dwarka Expressway, which is being carried out by the Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA). According to Mohd Saifi, a regional officer at NHAI, the trenchless pipeline-laying method has led to multiple distress manifestations, threatening the structural integrity of the expressway. NHAI has urged for immediate action to prevent any potential cave-ins that could result in serious accidents. In response, GMDA executive engineer Abhinav Verma stated that nearly 95% of the pipeline work has been completed and emphasized that all necessary precautions and safety measures have been implemented. The pipeline installation, which began in July, is crucial for enhancing the water supply infrastructure in the region, especially after changes to the road's alignment necessitated a new pipeline.
