Sixteenth Loksabha an> Title: Need for funds from Central Government for construction of a bridge in Kandhamal Parliamentary Constituecny of Odisha.
SHRIMATI PRATYUSHA RAJESHWARI SINGH (KANDHAMAL): This is regarding construction of one High level Bridge over river Mahanadi connecting Boudh town to Marjakud area within the jurisdiction of Boudhgarh NAC in my Parliamentary Constituency of Kandhamal. Though, it is a part of NAC, it remains cut off due to river Mahanadi as it is an Island within the River Mahanadi. Most of the people of this location are depending on country boats throughout the year to meet their day to day needs. This project will cater to the needs of the people to a great extent so far as the conveyance form Boudh to Marjakud is concerned.
I request the estimated cost of Rs. 68.21 crores may kindly be arranged from NABARD or from any other source of Central Government.
