The highway project for the 13.4-km two-laning of Hayuliang-Hawai (Package-I) in Arunachal Pradesh with a total project cost of Rs 13.81 billion will be completed this year, Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari said, adding that the project would significantly boost connectivity in Northeast India.

“Significant Boost to Connectivity in the North East! The project is for 13.4 Km 2-Lane Hayuliang-Hawai (Package-I) in Arunachal Pradesh with a total project cost of Rs. 138.13 Cr. will be completed this year.
