The National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) facing stiff protest from villagers over construction of toll plaza at Mudma near Mandar on Ranchi- Daltonganj NH 75 has decided to shift the location from Mandar to Chanho block of Ranchi district.
The NHAI has asked the Ranchi district administration to provide two locations for construction of toll plaza. The district administration had given the proposals which included two sites at Chanho and one at Mandar for construction of toll plaza, but the villagers were opposed for construction of toll plaza at agricultural land at Mudma.
The villagers protest was supported by local Mandar MLA Bandhu Tirkey. The agitating villagers had even damaged the temporary divider constructed by NHAI for toll plaza.
