Against the requirement of funds to the tune of Rs 125 crore for road repair in various Assembly segments of the district, the PWD has approved just Rs 40 crore in the past one year, said sources in the department. The lack of funds has allegedly led to the delay in the repair of roads in the district.
As many as 74 roads were described as damaged in the PWD report. These include 10 roads in the Faridabad Assembly segment, 19 in Tigaon, 21 in Prithla, 11 in NIT, 10 in Badkhal and three in the Ballabgarh Assembly segment. The sources claimed that the length of such roads was around 200 kilometres. The officials said budget estimates had been approved for 11 roads in Tigaon, seven in the Prithla segment, five in NIT, two in Ballabgarh and one in the Faridabad Assembly segment.
