Jeypore-Kundra Road Expansion Delayed

The proposed expansion of the Jeypore-Kundra road in Odisha faces delays due to opposition from local traders. The project, aimed at widening the road to alleviate traffic congestion in Jeypore town, has encountered resistance from traders who fear disruption to their businesses.

The road expansion project, which aims to enhance connectivity and improve transportation infrastructure in the region, has been stalled as traders express concerns over potential adverse impacts on their livelihoods. Despite efforts by authorities to address their apprehensions, opposition from traders has led to a standstill in the project's progress.
