"Most of the NHs in the state are in very bad shape. We are requesting the Centre for repairing the NHs passing through the state but they have not responded to our request to repair the NHs," she told a press conference here.
"If they (Centre) don't repair the NHs which are in very bad shape then we (state government) will be forced to repair them of our own," Banerjee said.
Earlier the chief minister accompanied by a large number of ministers including Railway minister Mukul Roy, Union minister of state for Urban Development Sougata Roy and a number of state ministers held a review meeting with the officials of the North 24 Parganas district administration here.
