While I appreciate the infrastructure push, I hope they consider environmental impact assessments properly. Rajasthan's fragile ecosystem shouldn't be compromised in the name of development.

Finally some good news! The Nagaur-Netra road is in terrible condition. This will be a big relief for daily commuters and truck drivers. Kudos to both state and central governments for working together.

₹1914 crore is a huge amount! Hope the money is used wisely and local contractors get preference in these projects. We need to see actual work on ground, not just announcements.

Good initiative, but what about maintenance? Many roads built under such schemes deteriorate quickly. Need a proper maintenance plan with accountability. #SustainableDevelopment

As someone who frequently travels between Jaipur and Nagaur, this is music to my ears! 😊 Better roads will save time, fuel and reduce vehicle wear-and-tear. Hope they include proper street lighting too.
