MLA Surendra Chaurasia Leads the Groundbreaking Ceremony
The foundation stone for this major road project was laid by respected MLA Surendra Chaurasia, in the presence of Deoria MP Shashank Mani Tripathi and several other leaders. A large number of residents gathered to witness this momentous occasion.
Better Roads for Over 50 Villages: Two-Lane Expansion Underway
For years, this road was in terrible condition, filled with potholes and cracks that made commuting a nightmare. The new two-lane upgrade will offer smoother, safer, and faster travel, benefiting residents of more than 50 villages in the area.
The stretch from Bhathni via Nunkhar to Khukhundu was full of deep potholes, making it nearly impossible for vehicles to pass smoothly. Now, with this reconstruction, the quality and durability of the road will improve significantly, allowing for better connectivity and economic growth in the region.
MLA’s Hard Work Pays Off

MLA Surendra Chaurasia fought tirelessly to get this road approved. He submitted multiple proposals and consistently followed up with the government to get the project sanctioned.
“Our goal is to provide world-class road infrastructure to our people. This two-lane expansion will greatly improve safety and connectivity”
said MLA Chaurasia.
This project is part of a larger development vision that focuses on improving key transport routes across the assembly constituency. Several other road improvements have already been completed, with more projects in the pipeline.
