While the KDMC (Kalyan Dombivli municipal corporation) and other authorities claim to fill up potholes in Kalyan on war footing, an unattended pothole caused an accident near Patri pool in Kalyan east on Wednesday. The biker is a school teacher who was with her daughter on an Activa when she skidded in a pothole near Patri pool in Kalyan east and fell down. Luckily, the truck driver behind them applied brakes and the mother daughter got away with injuries.

Bharati Chetain Nare, 32, along with her seven-year-old daughter was returning home on July 18, at around 4.15pm. While Bharati is a teacher in Arya Gurukul school, her daughter Siddhi also studies in the same school. "The school had closed by 4pm and we were on my Activa when we came across this big pothole which is adjacent to the speed braker near Patri pool," she said.

Her bike slipped into the pothole and Bharati fell to her left and her daughter fell backwards. "I cried when the bike fell and my daughter tried to jump but fell backwards," she said. "At that time there were small trucks who were behind us. The driver behind us applied brakes and brought the truck to a halt," she added.

While Bharati got her right hand fractured and sustained an injury on her left leg, her daughter suffered injuries on her waist. When contacted, Prasad Thakur, a KDMC's Public Relations Officer said, the road comes under the MSRDC (Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation Ltd.) jurisdiction. 

"MSRDC has undertaken repair of their roads. So, we are not doing any repair on their behalf," he said.
