Mar 25, 2018-Minister for Physical Infrastructure and Transport, Raghubir Mahaseth, has said the ongoing Narayangadh-Muglin road widening project would be completed before monsoon.
Talking to media persons after inspecting the project in Chitwan on Sunday, Minister Mahaseth said the project would be handed over to the government by completing it within May 30.
"I don’t want to go through the past, but be assured if contractors failed to accomplish the target by that time, they have to face music," he stressed.
