BS Reporter New Delhi

The Himachal Pradesh government requested the Centre on Friday to sanction seven national highways to strengthen the road network in the hill state. This request was made by state PWD Minister Gulab Singh in New Delhi at the PWD ministers’ conference.

Singh said this could be done by converting 888.865 km road length as national highway. He also demanded the Centre to sanction funds for construction of by-passes at Manali, Theog, Sundernagar and Jogindernagar to ease traffic congestion in these tourist resorts.
