Mangalore, Dec. 12: MP Nalin Kumar Kateel alleged that the work related to the four-laning of the stretch between B C Road and Surathkal in Dakshina Kannada Parliamentary Constituency was started about seven years ago but it has not been completed by the authority concerned till date. People in this area are facing great difficulty as it is a vital link, to other major towns in the State. Despite my several requests for speeding up the work, no steps have been taken. The work on the stretch is going on a snail’s pace.
Apart from this, works on service roads, building of bus shelters, foot over bridges, flyovers, particularly at Birkan katte in Mangalore have not been expedited.
Hence I urge upon the Union Government to take all necessary steps to complete the project at the earliest by giving necessary instructions to the National Highways Authority of India.
