Govt to relax norms for road developers in extremism-hit areas

28 May 2013 Evaluate

In view of security threat and slow execution of road projects in extremist-hit states such as Odisha, Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh, the government is planning to relax norms for road developers in these states. Till date out of proposed 5,477 km till 2012, barely 2,300 km of roads in Left Wing Extremism (LWE) affected areas have been completed.

Pursuant to which, the Road Transport and Highways Ministry has decided to relax eligibility conditions for developers like equipment capability, sub contracting for non-mechanized work and qualification criteria to attract more builders in such areas.

However, so far, there was no response from contractors in some areas of Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Odisha and Maharashtra due to the security concerns. Further, regulatory hurdles and order problem have also stalled the special road projects in this region sanctioned by government. Earlier, the road ministry had taken up the matter with the home ministry for deployment of security forces in areas of naxal-hit states.

Further, the expenditure incurred on about 2,300 km of projects so far was about Rs 2,700 crore out of a budget of Rs 7,724 crore for 5,477 km. Further, the development of roads under the project is likely to be completed by March 2015.
