The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) on Friday gave its approval for the two laning with paved shoulders of the Uniara-Nainwa-Hindoli-Jahajpur-Shahpura-Gulabpura section of NH-148D in Rajasthan.

The two-laning will takes place under the National Highways Development Project (NHDP) Phase IV, on Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) basis.

The cost is estimated to be Rs.774.33 crore. The total length of road will be approximately 204 kms.

The project will expedite improvement of infrastructure in Rajasthan and also reduce the time and cost of travel particularly for heavy traffic, plying on NH-148D between Uniara-Nainwa-Hindoli-Jahajpur-Shahpura-Gulabpura.

This stretch connects three National Highways that is NH-79, NH-12 and NH-116 and passes through three districts of Bhilwara, Bundi and Tonk.

This stretch will help in improving the socio-economic condition of this region of the State.

It will also increase the employment potential for local labourers for project activities.
