Rather Inaugurates Rs. 17.2 mn Road, PHC Projects in Budgam

Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly Speaker Abdul Rahim Rather has inaugurated macadamisation work on the 9-km Nowgam-Kanidajan Charar-i-Sharief road in Budgam at an estimated cost of Rs. 17.2 mn. The project is intended to improve the road surface, facilitate smoother vehicular movement and strengthen links with adjoining villages and localities.

The road work is also expected to improve access to education, healthcare, markets and other essential services for residents in the area. It could support local economic activity by making travel and the movement of goods more convenient for communities along the route.

Rather called for the development work to be completed within the prescribed timelines and executed according to the required standards. He also visited Darekanjan and Braripathri, where he interacted with residents and considered their concerns relating to basic amenities, infrastructure and other development requirements.

The Assembly Speaker assured residents that their genuine concerns would be referred to the relevant authorities for necessary action. He also stressed the importance of maintaining regular public interaction and ensuring the timely resolution of issues raised by local communities.

Later, Rather visited Watkaloo and inaugurated a new Primary Health Centre. The facility is intended to strengthen healthcare delivery in the area by providing essential medical services closer to residents, particularly those living in rural and far-flung locations.

The health centre is expected to reduce the need for residents to travel to distant health institutions for routine treatment and other basic medical requirements. Rather reiterated his commitment to continued development in the constituency, with emphasis on roads, healthcare and other essential public services.
