Akhilesh Yadav also raised questions about the presence of the highway police, patrolling services, towing assistance and the mismanagement by the government. "Where was the highway police, was there no regular patrolling? How long did the highway ambulance service take after this accident and what was its role concerning the casualties? Why did the vehicle not receive towing assistance if it was broken down.? Is the money spent on the expressway being given to any other organization?", he questioned.
