This groundbreaking infrastructure project, covering 30.811 km, was officially launched on April 23, 2024, marking a watershed moment in the state’s infrastructure growth.

Sanjay Kumar Sinha, Founder & Managing Director of Chaitanya Projects Consultancy, states “Better road conditions will facilitate more efficient coal transportation, potentially saving significant amounts of money currently lost to delays and blockages. Completing the 4-lane dedicated Coal Corridor Road from Bankibahal to Bhedabahal is a testament to our commitment to the ongoing pursuit of sustainable development and environmental conservation.”

“We are proud to contribute to Odisha’s infrastructure evolution, aligning with global sustainability goals,” Mr. Sinha added. “This project enhances regional connectivity and underscores our role in shaping a resilient and interconnected future for communities and industries.”
