Udupi Deputy Commissioner G. Jagadeesha said on Wednesday that the widening of Udupi-Thirthalli National Highway 169 A in Parkala town will commence on April 11.
Speaking at a meeting of land losers in Parkala, he said that owners of 72 property which will be acquired for the project will be given a total compensation of ₹21.84 crore.
He asked land losers to shift their belongings from their property before the commencement of the work. If needed, the district administration will help in shifting, he added.
The Deputy Commissioner said that the Parkala stretch on the highway should be widened at the earliest as it witnesses accidents frequently. The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has already published the final notification for acquiring land for the project.
