CM reviews PWD, MPRDC plans

Chief Minister Kamal Nath has given instructions for drafting a policy for coordination between road construction agencies in order to have better understanding about functions, scope of work and jurisdiction.

Nath was reviewing the plans of Public Works Department and Madhya Pradesh Road Development Corporation at Mantralaya here on Tuesday. Minister for Public Works Sajjan Singh Verma was also present.

Referring to various agencies engaged in road construction, Kamal Nath said that every agency must have clarity about its functions and duties. He said that maintenance or constructions of many roads are left undone only because agencies concerned keep shifting their responsibility. An overarching policy can resolve this and simplify the process of construction and maintenance of roads, he added.
