The proposed new National Highway to connect Garhwal-Kumaon in Uttarakhand has received in-principle approval. On final approval, the survey work will start soon. With the construction of this highway, the people of Kumaon will be able to travel to the capital Dehradun without entering UP. Ramnagar's social worker Harishchandra Sati had sent a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 30 December 2019 demanding the said National Highway.
