This New Year, people of Delhi, especially those who spend hours in the traffic jams on Mathura Road, Pragati Maidan and Bhairo Marg will feel respite as the Public Works Department (PWD) has started working at a frenetic pace to complete construction of 1.2 km ‘Underground Tunnel’ at Pragati Maidan by January 2020. PWD officers say they want to complete the construction before the deadline.
According to sources, the Prime Minister Office (PMO) has asked the PWD to finish the construction work by first of January next year. PMO intervention has come in wake of complaints by the harried people. As a matter of fact, actual date of completion of the project is March 31st 2020.
