Which areas will get new roads?
The board has prioritized the construction and renovation of roads that have been in bad condition for a long time. The government plans to fix both main roads and internal lanes inside the colonies. Specific instructions have been given to start immediate repairs in areas like Geeta Colony, Trilokpuri, and Rohtas Nagar.
