HC stays Kalsanka road widening

From our Udupi office
UDUPI : It has been learnt that the High Corut has stayed the Kadiyali-Kalsanka road widening works, following a petition filed by around 15 persons who are affected by this widening project.
The petitioners had opposed the decision of the government to widen the road upto 80 feet while their demand is to widen the road only upto 40 feet.
The government has already released Rs 10 crores for this project. The stay has come when the survey works had been completed and the process of land acquisition was underway.
The locals are now requesting the government to take steps to vacate the stay order at the earliest and in the meantime an appeal is also heard to widen the road only upto 40 feet.
