MP Ujjwal Raman Singh met Union Minister Nitin Gadkari

Prayagraj, 29 July (HS): MP Ujjwal Raman Singh met with Union Road and

Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari in Delhi and submitted a memorandum of

demands. During the meeting, the MP strongly advocated for the construction of

bypass roads in the major markets along the Karchana-Kohdarghat-Drummondganj

section of National Highway 135C (NH-135C).

MP representative Vinay Kushwaha stated that in a letter submitted to the Union

Minister, MP Ujjwal Raman Singh stated that this 58-kilometer-long road is a

very busy route in the region. Several important commercial and public centers,

such as Rampur Bazaar, Karchana Bazaar, Bardaha Bazaar, Kaithi Bazaar, Kaua

Bazaar, Bhadewara Bazaar, Kohdar Bazaar, Meja Energy Corporation, and Koraon

Bazaar, are located along this route. The NTPC Meja ash and crusher plant

produces a large amount of gravel. This leads to daily traffic jams in these

markets due to the movement of heavy trucks throughout the day.

Hundreds of people have died prematurely due to the

uncontrolled movement of heavy vehicles. Citing the safety of the local population

and smooth traffic, MP Ujjwal requested Union Minister Nitin Gadkari that the

construction of bypass roads next to all these markets is essential for the

public good. He urged the Union Minister to take appropriate steps in this

direction as soon as possible to ensure that local residents and passersby are

relieved of the daily accidents and traffic jams. The representative said that

Union Minister Nitin Gadkari has taken this demand letter submitted by the MP

seriously and has assured necessary action on it.
