Quality of rural roads should be equal to national highways: Giriraj Singh

Quality of rural roads should be at par with that of national highways, Union Rural Development Minister Giriraj Singh said on Tuesday while asserting that roads constructed under the PMGSY are lifeline of villages.

Addressing the International Conference – ‘New Technologies and Innovations in Rural Roads’, Singh advocated for the use of green technologies especially using waste as it makes the road construction more environment friendly.
