Mahabubnagar: A long-pending dream of the people of Jadcherla is finally turning into reality — the Jadcherla Bypass Road project has moved one big step forward with the Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways deciding to allocate funds in the current year’s budget. Union Minister Nitin Gadkari, in a letter to Jadcherla MLA Janampally Anirudh Reddy, confirmed that a Detailed Project Report (DPR) for the bypass has already been commissioned, paving the way for its early execution.

MLA Anirudh Reddy, expressing gratitude for the Centre’s positive response, said that the DPR for widening National Highway 167 into a four-lane road and constructing the Jadcherla Bypass has been entrusted to a consultancy firm. Once the DPR is submitted, Gadkari assured that funds will be earmarked within this year’s budget itself.

The MLA recalled that this breakthrough comes after months of persistent efforts. During Gadkari’s recent visit to Telangana, Anirudh Reddy, along with Minister Komatireddy Venkat Reddy, Mahabubnagar MP DK Aruna, and MLA Yennam Srinivas Reddy, had met the Union Minister at Shadnagar, where they jointly appealed for the sanction of a bypass road to ease the growing traffic congestion in Jadcherla.

Reddy explained that thousands of vehicles pass daily through Jadcherla, as both Hyderabad–Bengaluru National Highway (NH-44) and Raichur–Kodad National Highway (NH-167) cut through the heart of the town. The resulting heavy traffic, he said, has been causing severe inconvenience to commuters and residents alike.

Highlighting Jadcherla’s growing industrial significance, the MLA noted that the town has become Telangana’s fastest-developing hub after Hyderabad, making the construction of a bypass road not just a convenience but an absolute necessity. He said that his meeting with Gadkari in Delhi further strengthened the case, and the Union Minister responded very positively to the request.

“The Jadcherla Bypass will not only decongest the town but also spur rapid urban and industrial development,” Anirudh Reddy said, expressing confidence that the project would transform the region’s infrastructure profile.

The MLA extended heartfelt thanks to Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, Minister Komatireddy Venkat Reddy, MP DK Aruna, and MLA Yennam Srinivas Reddy for their unwavering support in achieving this milestone.
