NH-48 ka 44 km stretch, aur 147 zindagiyan

Jaipur ke paas NH-48 ka 44 km wala hissa roz hazaaron gaadiyon ka raasta hai. Trucks, buses, cars aur do-pahiye — sab ek hi patli si dhadkan par chal rahe hote hain. Isi corridor ne ek saal mein 147 zindagiyan le li aur 133 fatal accidents hue. Yeh number sunne mein sookha lagta hai, par road par iska matlab bahut gehra hota hai: ek pal ki der, ek galat overtake, ya traffic ka ek chhota sa jhatka. Log aksar kehte hain, bas road badi hai to safar asaan hoga. Par yahan speed, lane discipline aur heavy movement milkar scene ko aur tricky bana dete hain. Jaipur jaise shehar ke liye yeh sirf highway ka mamla nahi, daily life ka pressure point hai. Sachhi baat ye hai ki road ka design, driving aadat aur monitoring — teeno ko ek saath sudharna padega. Varna yeh corridor bas raasta nahi, ek yaad-dihani bana rahega.
