In such a situation, since the land is in the name of the Public Works Department, there will be no problems in work.
Engineer-in-Chief of Public Works Department, Ajay Gupta said that every village of Himachal Pradesh has to be connected with road facilities. In such a situation, along with connecting the village with roads, special attention has been asked to be given to its quality as well.
