Dehradun, 25 Sep: Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami today virtually laid the foundation stones for road projects worth Rs 55 crore under the Central Road Infrastructure Fund, aimed at the reconstruction of the Gadarpur–Dineshpur–Matkota–Haldwani motor route and the widening and strengthening of the Manunagar–Gadarpur–Dineshpur–Matkota–Haldwani corridor in Udham Singh Nagar district.
The CM also asserted that road connectivity across the state has improved significantly. Being a hill state, Uttarakhand frequently faces natural disasters that cause extensive damage to roads in mountainous areas. He noted that the government is working on a war footing to restore traffic movement in such regions.
Dhami further stated that under the PM’s leadership, a vast road network is being developed even in border areas. The double engine government is completing projects that had been pending for decades. Alongside unprecedented improvements in road connectivity, the government is also striving for the holistic development of the state through various initiatives.
On this occasion, Nainital MP Ajay Bhatt, MLA Shiv Arora, BJP State Secretary Gunjan Sukheja and other dignitaries were also present.
