The company engaged in construction of the NH-3 passing through villages in the district has allegedly damaged property and encroached upon the private land. The stretch is part of the Hamirpur-Mandi NH and land was acquired by the company to widen the road.
Affected villagers alleged that the company had started dumping earth material in their cultivable land and now they have complained of damages and encroachment on their land. The project is being executed by Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH). It is learnt that a toll barrier was proposed near Thana Drogan village.
