Model poll code hit infra projects as only 4km roads built in May: Ministry

As per the monthly report of the ministry of road transport and highways (MORTH), only a project of 4km-long road was built in May after the requisite approval of the Election Commission of India. The report was placed before the recent cabinet meeting.

The ministry prepares a summary about various projects and other developments to apprise the Cabinet every month. "Due to the imposition of MCC, projects could not be awarded except one project of 4-km with the approval of the ECI as compared to 382-km during the same period last year," read the summary report.
