The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), Route Transport, and Highways personnel were commended by Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan for completing the Amravati-Akola road so quickly. He has praised NHAI's efforts for breaking the world record by constructing this 75 km roadway in 105.33 hours, calling it an incredible feat. The Guinness Book has officially recognised this effort that was finished last month.

Chouhan stated that this is a remarkable illustration of the dedication to development under the leadership of the successful and forward-thinking Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Across the nation, a network of roadways is being built by the states. He claimed that after becoming joined by an amazing road, the two significant cities of Amravati and Akola transformed into twin cities. The world record-breaking speed at which this road was built has once again demonstrated Nitin Gadkari's tremendous determination and dedication to the welfare of the general public.

It is noteworthy that the NHAI team completed the single-lane, 75 km bituminous concrete road between Amravati and Akola in a record-breaking 105 hours and 33 minutes.
