Gadkari Claims Pothole-Spotting Tech from His Office Sparks Memes and Doubts

Union Minister Nitin Gadkari said he brought technology to spot even a single pothole on Indian roads from his office and called it an X-ray machine that puts every contractor in fear. Posts sharing the remark drew replies that mocked the statement, including one labeling him Scientist Nithinol Gadbadi. Other users recalled his earlier claim that collapsing bridges would trigger alarms in his office and noted that travel on the roads already reveals potholes without special equipment.

      @tweetaccount625 @mujifren @UjwalKS China, Japan ke mukable abhi bhi hamara indian railways stone age mein hi hain. Pichle 12saal mein road ke alava aur kuch nhi badla. Aur road development isliye kar rhe hai kyunki toll se unko paisa milta hai.

@IndianGems_ Loud mouth good for nothing except bragging. The most useless Sinister not minister unashamed of collapsing highways and expressways and damages to cars.

@IndianGems_ Four years ago Nitin Gadkari said in an interview, any bridge that's going collapse anywhere in the country will trigger an alarm in his office and he will alert the local authorities. This man gets away with the most bizarre bullsh*t. He is a bigger feku than Feku.

You don't even need eyes to know about potholes on Indian roads, you just need to travel on it...
