The Gujarat government has decided to connect Shabri Dham in Dang with the Statue of Unity in Narmada and convert it into a 218-kilometre corridor at the cost of Rs 1,670 crore to connect the tourist circuit, senior minister Jitu Vaghani said at a press conference on Wednesday.
The minister said that the decision was taken in the weekly cabinet meeting of the state government, held under the leadership of Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel on Wednesday.
Quoting Vaghani, an official release from the state government said the corridor, connecting Saputara, Shabri Dham, Songadh, Ukai, Devmogra, Mathasar and Zarwani, will be developed by expanding the existing road between the tourist destinations and constructing new roads in the missing links.
