A long-awaited demand of the people of Nalgonda is finally being addressed. After years of requests, the central government has approved a major infrastructure project—a 14-kilometer, 4-lane bypass road along National Highway-565. This highway connects the states of Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana. The government has also allocated ₹516 crores for the completion of the project.
This new bypass road will start from the Panagal Junction in Nalgonda. It is expected to significantly improve the lives of the local residents in Nalgonda and Suryapet districts. The bypass is part of the larger NH-565, which stretches from Sironcha in Maharashtra, passes through Nakirekal and Nalgonda, and continues through Nagarjuna Sagar into Andhra Pradesh, reaching Macharla, Erragondapalem, Kanigiri, and Chittoor.
Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari, announced the project on October 14 via Twitter. He confirmed that ₹516 crores had been sanctioned for the road’s construction. The new route is expected to ease traffic congestion and improve transportation, benefiting commuters and businesses in the region. It will also enhance connectivity for eight mandals, making travel faster and more convenient.
