NH-44 Udhampur-Ramban segment gets rehab package approved
Srinagar/IBNS: The Administrative Council (AC) under the chairmanship of Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha approved the proposal of the Revenue department for the rehabilitation of six families whose structures are coming under the National Highway Jammu to Srinagar Project at Dhalwas, Ramban.
A patch of land measuring 4 kanals and 11 marlas was required for building the national highway in the Dhalwas area.
An official spokesman in a statement issued said the rehabilitation of these affected families and consequent availability of land patch had removed a major bottleneck in completion of the project.
He said the government was keen to ensure early completion of NH-44 to ensure reliable connectivity to Kashmir.
Further, he said that the four laning of NH-44 had been completed at multiple segments and as of recently the Navyug tunnel had also been completed which was expected to significantly improve the connectivity to Kashmir during winters, as adverse weather conditions had led to frequent closure of highway in the past.
The completion of the four laning of NH-44 would play an important role for the economic, industrial, social and cultural development, better road connectivity and employment generation opportunities in the region.
