Kurukshetra, March 16
The Thanesar MLA has sought the shifting of godowns of government agencies out of the town to avert accidents and traffic jams due to the movement of heavy vehicles, especially during the procurement season. The government has sought a proposal regarding the shifting of the godowns located in residential areas.
According to information, the godowns of the Haryana State Warehousing Corporation and the Food and Civil Supplies Department are situated in residential areas at Mohan Nagar and 7-B colony, respectively, in Thanesar. The vehicles pass through congested roads to reach the godowns, and lead to traffic jams and accidents. The MLA has requested the government to shift these godowns, auction the land and utilise the money for constructing new godowns and other development projects. Directions have been issued to the officials concerned to prepare a report regarding the land on which the godowns are situated, their collector rates and the land available outside the city area where the new godowns can be constructed.
Thanesar MLA Subhash Sudha said, “The matter has been raised and the government has sought a proposal for the shifting of the godowns. Soon, the proposal will be sent to the government and we are hopeful that action will be taken in public interest”.
