Background

About 84 percent of the population of Odisha lives in villages. Therefore, rural connectivity is vital to bringing about socio-economic change in the state. By the end of 2011–2012, the state had 3762 rural roads totaling 28159 kms length being constructed.The government of Odisha has run a plethora of programs and schemes to improve the socioeconomic standing of tribal people, who make up more than 22% of the state's total population. To include them in the development process' mainstream, every effort is made. However, the creation of a well-developed road network is a requirement for the growth of any economic sector. 2018 saw the National Highways in the coastal state of Odisha reach a total length of 6,968 km. There are over 2,500 km of state highways that should be upgraded to national highways. The total length of national highways in Odisha will now be 9,493 km. Awarded projects span 2,894 km and cost Rs. 18,878 Cr. Orissa is rapidly transforming to become the agricultural, industrial, and infrastructural hub of India. Especially taking into consideration some major road projects that were undertaken with vigour however suffered tremendous delay, Cuttack-Sambalpur is one such project that has affected lakhs of Oriyas. This whole stretch is supposed to serve as a lifeline between western Odhisa and coastal Odhisa. It’s also been reported that national highways running through Odhisa are being neglected, and several stretches of such highways are in bad condition.
