All the projects are being implemented under the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) and are aimed at strengthening road connectivity in remote and rural areas of the district. Officials said the projects are expected to improve access to essential services and contribute to the overall socio-economic development of the Pir Panjal region.

A large number of local residents participated in the event and welcomed the initiative, thanking the MP and the government for prioritising long-pending connectivity needs.

MLA Ifthqar Ahmed said, “We are very happy that our MP, M Altaf sir, completed the restoration work and the foundation stone of the roads of PMGSY was also laid… These seven roads in my constituency will benefit residents. The road connectivity that has not existed for 70 years will benefit them.”

DDC member Sain Abdul Rashid highlighted the MP’s role in driving development projects and stressed the importance of regular reviews to ensure timely completion. “At our level, we always tried to work at the ground level… I will request that Mian Saab continue the six-month review meetings to ensure these works are completed,” she said.

Officials said the projects mark a significant step towards improving rural infrastructure and long-term connectivity in Rajouri district.
