HM Shah to visit Chhattisgarh today to review anti-naxal operations
Union Home Minister Amit Shah will visit Chhattisgarh on Friday for a two-day trip to evaluate the progress of the ongoing anti-Naxal operations in the state.
Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai has expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi following the approval of a high-speed four-lane road linking Pathalgaon in Chhattisgarh’s Jashpur district to Gumla in Jharkhand. The project, part of the Raipur-Ranchi National High-Speed Corridor, marks a significant step forward in the infrastructure development of both states.
Chief Minister Sai extended his congratulations to the residents of Jashpur and the entire state, highlighting the transformative impact of the project. “The construction of this high-speed road will not only ease travel between Raipur and Ranchi but will also significantly reduce travel time,” he noted. The project is expected to catalyse economic growth and development in the region, providing a boost to local industries and improving connectivity.
