Seemingly anguished over the deplorable condition of roads spread across the State, Chief Minister Trivendra Singh Rawat has instructed the chief engineer PWD to ensure completion of the repair works of the damaged roads in the State in a month. He, further, stressed that the repair works of the damaged roads in Dehradun should be completed in a week. He made it clear that no laxity and negligence would be tolerated in the construction and repair work of the roads.
CM, further, asked the officials of the National Highways to get the damaged Haridwar- Dehradun and Dehradun- Roorkee highways repaired on a war footing. Moreover, he instructed the chief engineer PWD to regularly monitor the road repair/construction works of National Highways and present the report daily to the secretary concerned of the State administration with a copy to be sent to the Chief Minister’s office.
He said that the chief engineer must himself ensure that the works are done properly through on the spot inspection of the sites where works are going on.
He said in a warning tone that he himself would keep an eye on the works. “Those neglecting works would face consequences,” he warned.
He regretted the inconvenience the people suffered due to damaged roads during the monsoon season.
