Earlier, the Uttar Pradesh government suspended six officials of civic agencies for gross negligence following road cave-ins and waterlogging at several sections of the newly built Ram Path in Ayodhya.
About 15 bylanes and streets along the Ram Path were flooded after rain on June 23 and June 25. Even homes along the road went underwater.
Portions of the 14-kilometer road stretch also caved in at more than a dozen places.
The PWD's office order stated that the upper-most layer of the Ram Path was damaged shortly after its construction, showing laxity in the work done under top priority of the Uttar Pradesh government and damaging the image of the state among common people.
