Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari, announced the construction of a new parallel road from Sankhali-Chorla-Belagavi after chairing a review meeting of ongoing national highway works in the State on Saturday.

The state of Goa has proposed that the Central government construct a parallel road to connect Belagavi from Sanquelim via Khanapur to protect the environment. Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari, has requested the state to submit a detailed project report (DPR) for the construction of this road via Chorla, according to Chief Minister Pramod Sawant, who also holds the Public Works Department (PWD) portfolio.

There has been a long-standing demand to expand the Sanquelim to Belagavi road due to the increase in traffic. Sawant stated that instead of expanding the stretch to a four-lane road, the construction of a parallel road would resolve the issue while also protecting the environment. “If we obtain forest clearance, then the work will commence,” he added.

Gadkari, along with Union Minister of State V K Singh and Sawant, held a review meeting with officials regarding ongoing highway projects. Sawant mentioned that the construction of the national highway from Anmod to the sugar factory and Khandepar would begin soon, and the Karnataka stretch would also be completed.

  3. Goa is no longer a preferred holiday location…it’s become a drunkards destination. There is a lot of attitude the locals show, and the tourists are a harassed lot, by the tourism industry. Decent crowds prefer other locations, within and outside the country.

  7. गोवा वासी ध्यान रखें कि आपका अर्थ तंत्र देशी पर्यटकों पर ही निर्भर है विदेशी सिर्फ फोटो खिंचवाने में ही ठीक है बाकी खर्चा सिर्फ देशी खर्च करते हैं जिससे आपका जीवन यापन होता है, आप जो बोलते है वो घमंड दर्शाता है
