Panchkula, May 28

Haryana Speaker and local MLA Gian Chand Gupta today instructed officials to expedite the construction work of a railway overbridge (ROB) being built on the Sector 19 railway crossing and complete it before Diwali this year.

The ROB, being constructed at a cost of Rs35 crore, is a pending demand of local residents.

Gupta, who visited the project site along with district officials, said a majority of the work had been completed. Only work of the Railways was pending. He said the pandemic slowed down the construction work of the project.

Officials told Gupta that due to problems in oxygen supply, pillars of the bridge being built in Hisar would be transported and raised here later. He also inspected the construction work of an underbridge in Sector 19.

Deputy Commissioner Mukesh Kumar Ahuja, Mayor Kulbhushan Goyal were among those who accompanied Gupta during his visit.
