Chandigarh, Sep 17 (UNI) Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh on Thursday thanked Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari for accepting state government’s proposal to approve substitution of 72 km stretch of Beas-Mehta-Batala-Dera Baba Nanak under ‘Bharatmala Pariyojana’ Phase-I as a part of year-long commemoration of 400th Prakash Purb of Ninth Sikh Guru Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji.
The Chief Minister also expressed gratitude to Chairman of the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), Sukhbir Singh Sandhu, for clearing this prestigious road project, linking Beas with the historic town of Dera Baba Nanak, connected with the life and times of founder of Sikhism Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji.
