Transport Minister reviews construction work at Zojila tunnel
THE GOVERNMENT wants its showpiece infrastructure project in Kashmir, the Zojila tunnel, to be inaugurated before 2024 general elections, asking the contractor to speed up work by about three years. “They are supposed to complete it by September 2026. I have asked them to finish it by December 2023 so that the Prime Minister can inaugurate it before Republic Day of 2024. It’s a challenge I know, but I’m confident they can do it on time,” Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari said during an inspection of the Zojila tunnel’s West portal in Baltal in Kashmir pm Tuesday. “Obviously, we would want it to be finished before the elections.” The 14.5 km Zojila tunnel, which will be Asia’s longest bi-direction tunnel at a height of more than 11,500 feet, will provide all-weather, perennial connectivity between Kashmir and Ladakh, which is otherwise hampered for winter months as the ancient Zojila pass is covered in snow and avalanches.
From the strategic point of view, the tunnel, which is being built at a cost of more than Rs 4,600 crore, is a critical asset for the armed forces. Connectivity is one of the areas the NDA government has been working on in its efforts to win over the people and overhaul the socio-economic condition of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh, the two Union Territories carved out of the erstwhile Jammu and Kashmir state. There are plans for 20 tunnels in Jammu and Kashmir and 11 tunnels in Ladakh. Road projects worth around Rs 1 lakh crore are currently in progress in the region. Through the tunnel, the travel time will be reduced from the current 3.5 hours through the pass to a 15-min drive, as per official estimates.
