Baghel has written in the letter that the construction work of National Highway No. 30 Raipur to Dhamtari Road is being done by NHAI. The work has been started after the closure of almost two years, but the progress of work is very slow. He has requested to direct NHAI to increase the progress of work. The Chief Minister has informed in the letter that the condition of National Highway No. 43 Pathalgaon to Kunkuri road is very bad. This work was started four years ago, but for more than two years this section of 25 km national highway is very poor and incomplete condition. A request was made in this regard in the month of October, but the progress of road construction is very slow from October, and work is almost stopped from the month of March 2020.
