Gujarat CM inaugurates RIL built road, veterinary hospital

Gujarat Chief Minister Anandiben Patel today inaugurated a veterinary hospital and a newly-constructed road, both built by Reliance Industries (RIL) in Jamnagar district.
RIL has constructed the 30km long road for the State Government's Road and Building Department. It connects Panada Patiya village on State Highway 25 and Changa Patiya on State Highway 27.
It is a two-lane all weather road, which can be expanded to four lanes. Built at a cost of Rs 86.96 crore, it connects eight villages and provides direct benefit to more than 2 lakh people.
Moreover, two major bridges have been built on it to cross the rivers Panna and Sasoi. Besides, eight minor bridges and culverts have been constructed on the pathway.

The road will allow the commuters to bypass Jamnagar city, while commuting between Rajkot and Dwarka. As a result, Jamnagar city will witness fewer vehicles entering it, leading to reduction in traffic and congestion and pollution.
The veterinary hospital is located near RIL's refinery complex in Jamnagar, the largest such facility in the world.

The hospital consists of main hospital building, cattle shed, stable, bio-medical waste room, fodder storage and staff quarters equipped with modern amenities. It is equipped with X-ray room, laboratory, pharmacy, operation theatre, library and other associated infrastructure.
On the occasion, RIL's Group Senior Vice-President (Corporate Affairs) Dhanraj Nathwani donated Rs 25 lakh to the Chief Minister's Swachchhata Nidhi, which supports cleanliness drive.

The Chief Minister later visited the RIL refinery.
