NH-105 Four-Lane Project in Nalagarh Stalled for Two Years, Causing Daily Jams and Deaths
- •The NH-105 (Pinjore-Baddi-Nalagarh) four-lane construction in Nalagarh, Himachal Pradesh, has been stalled for two years, causing severe issues.
- •This highway is crucial for the Baddi-Barotiwala-Nalagarh (BBN) industrial area, Himachal Pradesh's largest, generating billions in revenue.
- •Daily 2-3 hour traffic jams, potholes, and incomplete service lanes lead to production delays, worker tardiness, and numerous road accidents.
- •Hundreds of lives have been lost, and ambulances frequently get stuck in traffic due to the poor road conditions.
- •NHAI increased the project cost by 99 crore rupees and extended the tender date, pushing completion from 2024 to 2026, leading to potential agitation from industrialists.
Why It Matters: Nalagarh's vital NH-105 four-lane project is two years behind, causing daily jams, deaths, and economic disruption.
