    congress is responsible for these accidents as these roads with no plans were laid down by congress govt. long ago. congress had sown the seeds of death for this country I am not making it a political issue but it is a fact that congress is responsible wholly for all the ills of this country. Why is aloohol licensed by govt even though so many people and families suffer? congress govt wanted tax so it continued alcohol licensing.
