KATHUA, Aug 24: "Accelerated pace of developmental works will make Billawar a model constituency", this was stated by Speaker J&K Legislative Assembly; Dr Nirmal Singh here today after laying foundation for the construction of 5 km long road from Dharamkot to Surara via Malti to be executed under NABARD at an estimated cost of Rs 2.50 crore by PWD(R&B) Department. While addressing the gathering, Dr Singh informed that in block Bani, Billawar and Lohai, work on 122 roads costing around Rs 608 crore under PMGSY is in progress. Besides this, 33 roads covering 301 km were completed against the target of 928 km and the rest will be completed within the stipulated time frame, he added. Elaborating on road connectivity under PWD in the area, the Speaker said that 5 roads which extends to 26 km costing Rs 23 crore under NABARD were laid besides 2 roads at the cost of Rs 40 crore covering 16 km under CRF will not only consolidate road network in the area but also strengthen the inter as well as intra village connectivity in Billawar. The Speaker said that the regular maintenance of roads is a critical precondition for sustaining the positive impacts that roads bring to local communities. Minor maintenance is often neglected because of lack of funds, but inertia in the part of concerned departments is another major reason for poor maintenance of roads, Dr Singh maintained. |
