The demand of the residents of Goniana block, Bathinda, to metal the 3 km dirt stretch (kutcha road) that connects three districts of Malwa region — Bathinda, Muktsar and Faridkot — has been lying pending for over a decade.
The stretch begins at Ganga Ablu Ki village, goes via Kothe Naiwala and meets at Ramiana village in Farodkot district. The metal road will benefit residents of more than 12 villages around the block, who have to travel extra every time they have to enter Bathinda city, as well as Faridkot and Muktsar districts.
