Porbandar MP, Rameshbhai Dhaduk, with Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways of India, Nitin Gadkari regarding the toll fee hike at Godhavi toll plaza, the progress of the Rajkot-Jetpur 6-lane highway, and the construction work of a flyover and service road in his parliamentary constituency.

Rameshbhai Dhaduk wrote on his social media, “Met with Union Transport Minister Shri Nitin Gadkari ji in Delhi and made a presentation regarding the price hike of Godhavi Tolltax and the speedy commencement of work on the Rajkot-Jetpur Six Lane, along with the construction of a new flyover and service road in the Porbandar constituency.”

It is noteworthy that the conversion of the 70-km Rajkot-Jetpur Road into a 6-lane highway was announced in February 2019 by the then Union Minister of State for Roads & Transport, Mansukh Mandavia.

However, in May of this year, it was learned that the reason for the delay was the re-identification of illegal constructions that needed to be demolished for the transformation of the highway into a six-lane road.
