Member of Parliament Umesh Jadhav met Union Minister for Road Transport and Highway Nitin Gadkari in New Delhi on Wednesday and submitted a memorandum demanding approval for a second ring road (bypass) for Kalaburagi city.
Explaining the need for the second ring road, Dr. Jadhav said that it has been a long-pending demand as the city has outgrown beyond the utility of the existing ring road. To avoid heavy traffic congestion on NH-150E, NH-50 and NH-150, a new bypass is required for safe and smooth movement of vehicles.
Dr. Jadhav, who has been following up on the issue for the last three years, recalled that on several occasions in the past he put forward the proposal for the second ring road project to Mr. Gadkari and raised the matter in Question Hour and Zero Hour in Parliament stressing on the importance of the second ring road for the development of the city.
