The Durg district administration has given approval for constructing a village road and a culvert leading to the local cremation ground, aiming to improve access for residents.
The district administration of Durg has officially sanctioned the construction of a new road connecting a village to its cremation ground. The approval also includes building a culvert to ensure safe passage during the monsoon season and to prevent waterlogging on the route.
Local officials indicated that the project will be executed under existing municipal schemes, with the aim of enhancing connectivity for funeral rites and everyday travel. The road is expected to reduce travel time for residents who currently navigate unpaved paths.
The administration has not released a detailed timeline or budget, but has assured that the work will commence shortly, subject to standard clearances and contractor selection.
Community leaders have welcomed the move, citing the importance of reliable infrastructure for both cultural practices and general mobility in rural areas.
