Rajouri, Jun 24, 2025 : In a transformative push to enhance regional connectivity and economic development, the Centre has fast-tracked work on the strategically significant Rajouri -Thannamandi-Bufliaz- Surankote Road, a part of the Megha Project aimed at linking the Pir Panjal region with the Kashmir Valley via the historic Mughal Road.

The project, currently being executed under the supervision of the Border Roads Organisation (BRO) and handled by TBM Construction Company, is progressing on a war-footing. Key infrastructural activities such as blacktopping, road widening, surface clearance and the construction of protection walls are ongoing across multiple stretches.

This vital highway is more than just a road—it is a lifeline for the twin border districts of Rajouri and Poonch. Once completed, it will serve as a shorter and faster route to the Kashmir Valley, significantly reducing travel time and enhancing emergency accessibility.

The project has already begun transforming the local economy. Numerous unemployed youth from the region have found gainful employment as engineers, machine operators, labourers and helpers on the site. Moreover, a growing number of youth have launched self-employment ventures, particularly taxi services between Rajouri and Kashmir Valley, capitalising on increasing movement and demand.

This road also unlocks massive tourism potential with easier access to breath-taking destinations like Shahdara Sharief, DKG (Dera Ki Gali), Pir Ki Gali and Doongi Marg. The improved infrastructure is expected to draw pilgrims and nature lovers alike, providing an additional boost to the hospitality and service sectors in the region.

From a strategic standpoint, this route strengthens national infrastructure in border areas, improves mobility for defence forces and ensures timely disaster response. Socially, it promotes integration and accessibility for remote and underserved communities in hilly terrains.

As the Megha Project picks up pace, hopes rise high in the Pir Panjal region for a future marked by connectivity, prosperity and peace.
