Bhopal(Madhya Pradesh): Traffic on the Mandakini intersection of Kolar Road was disrupted after a portion of the road around a sewage chamber caved in on Tuesday. No one was hurt in the incident. As per the official information, the chamber was constructed around 2 years ago. The caved-in portion of the main road poses risk to pedestrians and motorists and needs to be repaired at the earliest.
