Government removes ‘bonus’ clause for early completion of NH projects in hill states

Government has scrapped early completion bonuses for highway projects in hilly regions to prioritize quality construction. New mandates require slopes to withstand a monsoon before final road work begins. Stricter geological checks and slope monitoring are now compulsory, with payments tied to stability measures. This aims to curb landslides and ensure safer, more durable infrastructure in sensitive terrains.
