Assam unveils plans for 32 km elevated road and underwater tunnel

Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma of Assam revealed forthcoming plans for significant infrastructural developments. Among these announcements, a 32 km raised road corridor is set to be established within Kaziranga National Park. Additionally, the state government aims to construct an underwater tunnel beneath the Brahmaputra river, a project estimated at Rs 40 billion.

During the observance of National Handloom Day, Chief Minister Sarma articulated, "It is with great pleasure that I share our intent to materialise a 32 km elevated corridor, which will take the form of a flyover. Our determination to bring this project to fruition is steadfast."
