According to him “ We have about 398 km roads all through the state and so many projects are ready for commissioning now, from the month of April through May, we will be commissioning a lot of road and school projects”.

While commending the construction firms handling the road projects on the quality and standard of work, Governor Okowa charged them to speed up work so as to meet the time schedule.
