The incident reportedly took place on Wednesday night when the deceased, Pramod Chandra (65), was returning home from his clinic. He allegedly lost the control of his scooter on a newly built speed-breaker near the Judge Court campus.
Chandra was reportedly not wearing a helmet at the time of accident.
Executive Engineer (PWD) Anil Gupta said the speed- breaker was higher than normal and there was no warning sign over it.
PWD here has awarded an adverse entry to the concerned engineer for the lapse, he added.
