Villagers say the newly built road has eased transportation for farmers, traders, students, and workers who earlier struggled with poor connectivity. A video shared from the village captures a young resident openly appreciating the government’s initiative, highlighting how the road has reduced travel time and made movement safer and smoother.
Boost to Agriculture, Trade, and Daily Life
The improved road connectivity is especially beneficial for farmers, enabling faster and more affordable transport of agricultural produce to the mandi. Residents note that better roads are directly contributing to economic activity, reducing vehicle damage, and improving access to markets, schools, and healthcare facilities.
Strengthening Last-Mile Connectivity in Border Areas
Fazilka, being a border district, has long faced challenges related to infrastructure gaps in rural pockets. The completion of the Singhewala Sainiyan–Ladhuka Mandi link road is being seen as a crucial step towards strengthening last-mile connectivity in the region. Locals believe that improved roads not only support economic activities but also enhance a sense of security and inclusion among border-area residents.
Under Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann’s leadership, the Punjab government has prioritised strengthening rural infrastructure, with a focus on link roads that connect villages to mandis and main highways. The initiative reflects the government’s commitment to inclusive development, ensuring that progress reaches even the last village.
