Amid heavy rainfall affecting various parts of Uttar Pradesh, a video surfaced on social media showing a significant portion of a road collapsing in Lucknow’s Vikas Nagar area. The incident reportedly occurred on Sunday near Powerhouse Crossing in Sector 8.
The viral video captures the moment the road begins to cave in, with bystanders observing the unfolding destruction. In the footage, a person filming can be heard cautioning commuters about potential risks. Journalist Sachin Gupta shared the video, highlighting the locality’s name and sparking widespread public concern.
The video’s circulation triggered criticism directed at the government. One user expressed dismay over the state of infrastructure development under the current administration, suggesting a disconnect between promised progress and actual conditions on the ground. Another commenter likened the scene to a popular biscuit brand, humorously noting the depth of the collapse.

The incident in Vikas Nagar echoes a similar occurrence in Muzaffarnagar district, where another video recently circulated depicting a newly constructed road giving way under the pressure of canal water flow.
Authorities have yet to comment on the Lucknow incident, which has drawn attention to infrastructure vulnerabilities amidst adverse weather conditions in the region.
