Recommended
The proposed project is widening and strengthening of the existing Chaibasa Tonto Roam Road. The section of the road falling within the jurisdiction of Kolhan Division becomes non motorable during the monsoon season. Proposed road will provide faster and safe access to nearby villagers to district headquarter. Proposed road will also further the connectivity of West Singhbhum district HQ with Tonto and Manoharpur blocks. The proposed road is also strategically important from law and order point of view. Once completed, the road will facilitate easier movement of Police and Paramilitary forces. In view of the larger public interest 11.093 ha. of forest land may be diverted for strengthening and widening of Chaibasa Tonto Roam Road.
