The Centre today approved construction of a 25 km road in Rajasthan which will help people from 30 villages get better connectivity.
A statement from Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting Rajyavardhan Rathore's office said here that the Transport Ministry today issued financial and administrative approval for construction of the Pavta-Narheda road.

It claimed that following efforts of Rathore, the state government upgraded the category of the road and the Union Transport ministry issued clearances for its construction at a cost of over Rs 57 crore.
