PM to inaugurate Kundli-Manesar-Palwal Expressway on Nov 17 or 18
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to inaugurate the 136-km Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP) expressway on November 17 or 18. PWD Minister Rao Narbir Singh said the decision was taken during a meeting between Haryana CM Manohar Lal Khattar and Modi on Saturday. Singh further said that Modi is likely to inaugurate the expressway at Manesar, where he would also address a rally on the occasion.
A 54 km stretch of the Expressway is already operational
Once the KMP expressway is thrown open, heavy vehicles will get access to various industrial towns like Maneser, Sohna, Dharuhera, Bawal and Bhiwadi in Haryana without entering Delhi. A 54-km stretch of the Expressway between Maneser and Palwal is already operational since 2015. The rest 83.6 km stretch between Kundli and Maneser ran into land acquisition hurdles, which was why the project got delayed.
