Raje said that guidelines for development of roads in religious, tourism and
backward regions of the state under Bharatmala Programme be issued soon. She
suggested that 74.6 kilometer-long Suratgarh-Anupgarh road, which had been
already sanctioned with estimated cost of 291.20 crore rupees under the
Bharatmala Programme, be handed over to the Public Works Department of
Rajasthan under the EPC scheme.
The
CM requested Gadkari for early approval of proposals worth 291.2 crore rupees
for construction of 34 kilometer-long 4-lane road at Kota-Darrah section of
NH-12 and asked for support in getting environmental clearance of the same. She
further asked for sanction on another 86.16 crore rupees for CC road works in
Jhalawar Town at NH-12.
Raje
told the Union Minister that a detailed project report of Darrah-Teendhar Road
on NH-12 had been forwarded to his Ministry. She asked for considering this DPR
into two parts because a seven-kilometer stretch of this road passed through
WildLife Sanctuary which was facing difficulties in getting environmental
clearance. She said that 20.5 crore rupees be sactioned for maintenance of this
section of the road. For rest of the project, she said, no environmental
clearance was needed. Therefore, the Ministry should help in getting clearance
of this report. Construction of this road would benefit tourism as well as
economic activities in this backward region of the state, she added.
