Patna, July 31 (NationPress) In anticipation of the forthcoming Assembly elections in Bihar, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Thursday commenced the groundwork for various development initiatives valued at around Rs 570 crore during his trip to Muzaffarpur district.
Among the key projects are the establishment of a rail overbridge and an RCC bridge, both set to greatly enhance connectivity and public safety in the area.
Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, who traveled to Muzaffarpur via road, first launched the construction of a rail overbridge near Madipur Power House, which will be built at a cost of Rs 167 crore.
This bridge aims to tackle the ongoing traffic congestion that residents face, providing crucial relief to commuters and improving accessibility across the region.
Next, Nitish Kumar laid the foundation stone for an RCC bridge in the Madhurpatti area of Gaighat, with a budget of Rs 24 crore.
This site recently garnered attention due to a tragic boat incident that resulted in the loss of around a dozen lives. The new bridge is anticipated to provide a secure and lasting means of crossing, thereby reducing dependence on hazardous boat transport.
Beyond these two significant projects, the Chief Minister also inaugurated five additional development schemes aimed at bolstering infrastructure and civic facilities throughout Muzaffarpur district in the coming years.
Locals have expressed their support for these initiatives, particularly the RCC bridge in Gaighat, labeling it a long-awaited remedy to a persistent and fatal issue.
The state government reaffirmed its dedication to the prompt execution and completion of these projects, ensuring they deliver real benefits to the populace.
“Our emphasis is on enhancing infrastructure, safety, and mobility for the people. These projects will significantly contribute to the sustained development of Muzaffarpur,” CM Kumar remarked during the occasion.
On the previous day, CM Kumar visited the Wanavar block in Jehanabad district, where he examined several developmental initiatives. He also urged officials to accelerate ongoing projects to assist residents in the district.
