Dharam Singh promises package for roadworks

HUBLI: Chief Minister N. Dharam Singh on Monday promised to provide a package of assistance for rebuilding roads in Hubli-Dharwad, which has become necessary after the recent massive demolition taken up by the Hubli-Dharwad Municipal Corporation for removing the encroachment.

The Chief Minister, who spoke to presspersons soon after his arrival here, was noncommittal on the question of clearance to the long-pending Rs. 176-crore scheme for augmenting water supply for Hubli-Dharwad. He declined to react to complaints that a number of schemes pertaining to improvement of Hubli-Dharwad were pending with the State Government at the moment.

Mr. Dharam Singh, who arrived here 90 minutes late, was accompanied by Deputy Chief Minister M.P. Prakash, and Law and Parliamentary Affairs Minister H.K Patil.
