In a bid to boost infrastructure development across the state, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's leadership has spurred the Uttar Pradesh state government into action.
The Public Works Department has greenlit a significant budget of ₹176.69 crore to fast-track various projects throughout the region. This financial injection will fuel a range of important initiatives, including the construction of railway overbridges, rural roads, and a bypass in Sitapur. Notably, in Mahmoodabad, a 2.10 km bypass and a 4-lane bypass in the Bargadwa-Kauwabad area of Gorakhpur are in the pipeline. Furthermore, a substantial ₹44.86 crore has been earmarked to finalize the construction of a bridge at Khajanachi Chauraha on a key roadway.
