Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel has proposed a new National Highway (NH) to improve connectivity between the state and Ayodhya. The proposed route aims to facilitate better access to the historic city and boost regional development.

The new NH is expected to enhance travel convenience for pilgrims and tourists visiting Ayodhya, a significant religious site. The route will also strengthen transport links between Chhattisgarh and Uttar Pradesh, promoting economic and cultural exchange between the two states.

The proposal includes detailed plans for road construction, with an emphasis on safety and efficiency. The highway will be designed to accommodate increased traffic and support the growing number of visitors to Ayodhya. This development aligns with broader efforts to improve infrastructure and regional connectivity across India.

Baghel's proposal highlights the strategic importance of enhancing transportation networks to support tourism and regional integration. By connecting key cities and religious sites, the new NH aims to drive economic growth, create job opportunities, and improve overall accessibility.

The state government is seeking central approval and funding for the project, which is expected to involve significant planning and coordination. The proposed NH reflects Chhattisgarh's commitment to advancing infrastructure development and supporting the state's economic and cultural ties with other regions.

The new highway is anticipated to play a crucial role in enhancing connectivity, boosting local economies, and providing a reliable transport route for residents and visitors alike.
