Despite passing of a year since Prime Minister NarendraModi laid foundation stone of the Rs 939 crore ring road in Kashmir, there has been no headway on the ambitious project.
PM NarendraModi laid foundation stone of Rs 939.41 crore semi-ring road project in Kashmir during his visit to J&K on 19 May 2018. However, no work has been done in last 12 months on the project due to a “dispute” on the land compensation.
According to a senior official of Public Works Department, the dispute between the government and the landowners over compensation rates is the “main hurdle”.
