The Power Minister said that the Union Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC) had also given forest clearance for the link road construction from Madhana village to Phandibodiwala through Janglot in the Renukaji Assembly constituency.

He said that with this road construction, over 50,000 people in 30 panchayats of the region would be benefited. This would also promote religious tourism in the state because the distance to different religious places would decrease. This route would also prove to be advantageous for the Renuka Dam project.

He said that all mandated formalities were being finished so that the work on this road could begin soon. The long-pending demand of the people would be fulfilled by this road construction, he said.
