RIP departed soul!! Ironically, after widening of roads, fatal RTAs have increased manifold times, no doubt, we may be ranking as one of the worst in the world ratings for road accident casualties!!

Gadhaa kari always mentions that country will have world class roads .. he never tells the fact that despite 10 years of BJP rule, roads remain third class and India is number one in the world in road accidents ...
