Rs 2 lakh crore road projects to be completed by 2024: Nitin Gadkari

Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari today said that Himachal had just three of four national highways before 2014 but “now it has 66 national highways”.

He addressed an election rally party candidate from Kangra seat Pawan Kajal. He said that former US President Kennedy had said, “The US is rich because its roads are good. I had come to Bilaspur five years ago and promised that I would construct two bridges and provide drinking water supply to the area. I am happy that both promises have been fulfilled.”
