This project has been awarded under the government‘s flagship road building program — National Highways Development Project (NHDP) Phase-V. The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA), chaired by PM, has given its approval for development of the six laning of the NH-2 in the state. The project will be built on the Hybrid Annuity Mode (HAM) and the total cost also included the cost of land acquisition, resettlement and rehabilitation and other pre-construction activities, said official sources.
