Chhindwara: The country's most beautiful and first sound and light proof National Highway became a victim of dilapidation within the guarantee period itself. The highway in Seoni between Jabalpur and Nagpur in Madhya Pradesh was made sound and light proof, but within 4 years a large part of it fell into disrepair. Let us tell you that this famous part of NH-44 was built keeping in mind the wildness of Pench Tiger Reserve. Its objective was that the National Highway should pass through here without disturbing the wildlife. Let us tell you that NH-44 is the longest national highway of the country, which connects North India to the South. This highway passes through the buffer zone of Pench. On 16 September 2021, at a cost of about Rs 960 crore, the country's most beautiful sound and light proof Part of the National Highway was inaugurated.

This part of National Highway 44 falls in Seoni while going from Jabalpur to Nagpur. National Highway-44 connects Seoni in Madhya Pradesh to Nagpur in Maharashtra. Meanwhile, there is a buffer zone of Pench National Park, in which many animals used to become victims of road accidents, after which this highway was built from Mohgaon in Seoni district to Khawasa border.

A large part of the highway is one-way during this time. Care has been taken for the convenience of wild life. 14 underpasses have been made in this 29 kilometer sound proof highway, through which wild animals can easily come and vehicles can move fast without any fear. . The company that built the National Highway had given a guarantee for it for 4 years, but the 4 years have not even ended and now patch work has started on a large scale here.

This highway passes through the buffer zone of Pench. Why was this highway discussed in the country? The most special thing about this part of the highway is that 14 underpasses of 3145 meters length have been built between Mohgaon and Khawasa, which will provide access to the Pench Tiger Reserve. Wild animals can move around easily. To ensure that the wildlife is not disturbed by the sound and lights of vehicles running on the highway, a 4 meter high steel wall has been built on both sides of the highway by installing green colored sound barriers and headlight reducers. In such a situation, when the galloping vehicles run through this part of the National Highway, talking to the air, their sound and light do not reach the wild animals below.

The most famous highway of the country is in bad shape. The tigress reached 400 kilometers away from Pench Tiger Reserve, the forest department was surprised to see the location. On the very first day of the tiger safari, Vanraj gave darshan in Kanha, Bandhavgarh, Pench and Panna also reached. Company engaged in tourist maintenance, many places. One-way: Even though questions are being raised on the quality of this part of the highway, the company doing the construction work has given the reason behind it. NHAI Project Director Sanjeev Sharma said, “No quality has been compromised in the construction of the National Highway. Due to the heavy weight of this part of the highway, there has been some depression in the ground due to which the road has been uprooted at some places. Its maintenance is being done by the construction company because the construction of the National Highway is currently in the guarantee period.”
