The lack of a central government nod has stalled the progress of five major road projects in Bihar, affecting regional connectivity and development plans.
The progress of five significant road projects across Bihar has come to a standstill due to the absence of a nod from the central government.
These projects, which were slated to improve connectivity between key districts, were awaiting approval for land acquisition and funding allocation.
The delay is expected to push back completion dates, potentially increasing costs and postponing the benefits to local communities.
Officials have urged the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways to expedite the decision so that work can resume and the projects can move forward.
