In a recent move, the Chief Minister approved Rs 22.69 billion for projects aimed at upgrading roads connecting 44 tourist destinations across Gujarat. Of this, Rs 400.50 million has been designated for the development of six roads and bridges in Palitana, covering a total length of 24.90 km.

The latest approval of Rs 510.57 million focuses on the construction of new roads and bridges over an 800-meter stretch, further enhancing access to the pilgrimage site. In total, the Chief Minister has allocated Rs 920.07 million for the improvement of 25.70 km of roads leading to Palitana.

These infrastructure improvements are expected to significantly enhance the safety and accessibility of the area for both pedestrians and travellers.
