He said the project passes through backward districts of Rajasthan, and improvement of the project route will lead to the economic development of the region and congestion-free traffic movement. The project will improve connectivity to NH-68 (Jaisalmer-Barmer-Sanchor), NH-25 (Jodhpur-Pachpadra-Barmer) and NH-925 (Bakasar-Gagadiya), he added.

Gadkari said NH-25 (Ext.) provides a link to the Bharatmala road network running parallel to International Border connecting Munabao-Dhanana-Tanot (NH-70). It also connects Munabao to Barmer district headquarters where several military bases are located. He said this national highway is very important from a strategic point of view to provide logistics to Munabao (International Border) which is currently a single lane.
