An amount of Rs 1,276.74 lakhs was utilized under the project, highlighting the government’s continued investment in strengthening regional infrastructure and connectivity.

The tender process was initiated in the same year, and the construction work was awarded to M/s Sadguru Engineers & Allied Services Private Limited on 27 March 2018 with an agreement value of Rs 2,203.26 lakhs.
