Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari has inaugurated nine national highway projects of total 243 km length worth ₹1,357 crore in Rajasthan.

The projects include widening of the Ninawa section from Sanchore on NH-168A in Rajasthan to increase the business of granite industries of the Chalaur district; 2-lane Sriganganagar to Raisinghnagar on NH-911 and the Sriganganagar reinforcement from Suratgarh on NH-62; 4-lane flyover in Suratgarh city, among others.

25 new bypasses were also announced in Rajasthan with a budget of Rs 5,000 crore. A provision of Rs. 200 crore has been made for a ROB on state highways under the scheme Setubandhan Yojana.

Taking the military station on both sides of the road into consideration will significantly enhance India's strategic strength. He said the armed forces would get better connectivity across the border, and in turn, new jobs would be created. The construction of roads over bridges (or ROB) will seek to eliminate the jam of level crossing.
