Similarly, tar roads will be constructed throughout the hospital through the chief minister's attention to prevent rainwater logging during the rainy season. Land acquisition is essential on behalf of the government whether it is constructing new roads towards development or widening of roads.

If land acquisition means constructing a road for whom. We are constructing a bypass to decongest the city area. Land has to be acquired for the implementation of government projects.
