New Delhi: 84 Kosi Parikrama Marg Ayodhya, which is very important for Dewah Ram worshipers will be developed as a national highway.
The source said developing a parcrama Marg 275-km to two NH lines can cost around Rs 3,000 Crore, but the center will take the last call about whether it will make it 2-lane or 4-lane NH.
On Wednesday, the Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari tweeted that the ministry had issued a notification concept to declare the road as NH.
In March 2017, the ministry had given the principle approval to develop it as NH was mythological and religious interests.
Uttar Minister Pradesh Yogi Adityanath welcomed the decision and said this would help rejuvenate Ayodhya’s ancient glory and this would be a big boost for religious tourism.
The development master plan for Ayodhya, which now works, also identifies the development of Parikrama Marg as the main component.
The source said the center would try to complete the widening of the road in the next two years when the RAM Temple was opened for worshipers.
Tourists from countries and abroad will be able to do 84 parcrama kosi in Ayodhya through the streets that are changed.
Eight-Four Kosi Parikrama Marg passes five districts, including Ayodhya, Ambedkar Nagar, Barabanki and Gonda.
At present, the condition of the Marg is not in good condition.
Those who do Parikrama need to cross the river by boat.
Sources say new plans will also combine traffic plans that include these religious places for the convenience of worshipers.
