Sunil Kumar Mondal’s speaks to convert NH-34 into a four-lane road.

Thank you, hon. SpeakerिSirिforिgivingिmeिtheिopportunityिtoिspeakिinि‘ZeroिHour’. I wanted to raise this matter in the discussion on Demands for Grants for Road Transport but did not get a chance. A very important road connecting Haldia via Kharagpur, Arambagh, Burdwan Birbhum is NH-34. This road was envisaged when I was a Member of the Consultative Committee; the map pointing is already there. Land is available and there is no problem of land. I request the hon.Minister Nitin ji to take some initiative in this regard. This is a single-lane road and bus service is available every 10 minutes. It is the only connecting link. As it is a single road, accidents take place very often. There is a proposal to convert this into a four-lane road. If that is done, then not only the agro-based industries, but many other big and small industries will also flourish in the vicinity. Moreover, the common people of the area will also be benefited as a result. Thank you, Sir.
