Nitin Gadkari responds to criticism over a claimed “missing link” on the Mumbai–Pune Expressway, saying the road is in good condition despite ongoing use. He says the expressway remains pothole-free nearly 27 years after it was built, attributing this to the quality of the construction.
Gadkari adds that the expressway’s performance holds up under heavy traffic and changing weather conditions. In his remarks, he frames the dispute as a misunderstanding of who built the road and the current state of the pavement. The outlet reports that he argues the allegations do not reflect the road’s condition and highlights its long-term durability rather than focusing on any newly identified work needs.
