New Delhi, March 19
Union Minister Jitendra Singh met Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari on Friday for allocation of funds to enable timely completion of the proposed 6.8-km Chattergala tunnel, which will connect Kathua district with Doda in J&K, according to a statement.
This is going to be a landmark project providing all-weather alternate road connectivity between the two distant regions and reducing the travel time from Doda to Lakhanpur to just around four hours, it said. — PTI
