He also reviewed the status of land acquisition for this four-lane project, and listened to concerns raised by local residents about difficulties caused by delays or by the acquisition itself. The minister noted that recent heavy rains had damaged portions of the road in various parts of the district, and he asked officials to arrange repairs without delay on those stretches, especially on roads that lead to Shimla, so that vehicle movement is not disrupted.
Present with him during the inspection were Deputy Commissioner of Bilaspur, Rahul Kumar; Sub-Divisional Magistrate of Bilaspur Sadar, Rajdeep Singh; the Project Director of the National Highways Authority of India; and other officers. They briefed him on both the technical side of construction and the challenges faced by affected people.

Ajay Tamta instructed concerned authorities to remedy those damaged stretches immediately. He also asked for clear information about which plots had been acquired, which were pending, and what compensation or resettlement issues were occurring so that locals' problems could be addressed.
