Uttarakhand seeks central nod to restart Char-Dham roads

Chardham Road Project
Uttarakhand government has sought permission from the Union transport ministry to bring skilled laborers and construction material from outside the state to resume the construction of Char Dham all-weather road project in the state. Work on the 880-km Char Dham project, which will connect Badrinath Dham, Kedarnath Dham, Gangotri, Yamunotri and part of the route leading to Kailash Mansarovar yatra, had stopped because of the lockdown. The state already has non-skilled laborers and if it gets the permission to bring back the skilled manpower then it would be able to restart and speed up construction of the mega highway project and other road construction works across the state.
