This year is going to be quite inconvenient for the locals and visitors to Haridwar with excavations carried out for the underground cable laying and gas pipeline works in this city.
The work on underground cabling is underway with an aim to complete it before the Kumbh Mela in 2021. At the same time, excavation has also been carried out for laying the gas supply pipeline in Haridwar.
Mela Hospital, Women’s Hospital and District Hospital are located in Haridwar city. The pilgrimage season will start in the near future with the Char Dham Yatra slated to resume from next month. Under such circumstances, the police administration and incoming pilgrims will face a tough time.
A local hotelier Aditya Khanna said that excavation of the Upper Road has made routine works harder for the locals. School buses too are getting delayed due to the excavated road, he added. Housewife Priyanka Singh, said that her family members get stuck in traffic jam during lunch time.
