In Jammu and Kashmir, the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) continues to play a key role in transforming rural infrastructure across the Union Territory, in line with the vision of inclusive development and improved quality of life in underserved areas. In a significant push towards rural development, villages across the Udhampur-Kathua-Doda Lok Sabha constituency are set to benefit from improved road connectivity under the PMGSY.

In the latest phase of the scheme, funds have been sanctioned to strengthen and expand rural road networks, with a special focus on connecting remote and far-flung areas that have long faced accessibility challenges. The initiative is expected to significantly improve transport facilities, ease of travel, and access to essential services for local residents.

The Jasrota constituency is among the key beneficiaries in this phase, with multiple road projects approved. These developments are expected to enhance last-mile connectivity by linking isolated villages to main roads, markets, healthcare centres, and educational institutions. The improved road network is also expected to reduce travel time and open new avenues for economic growth by facilitating the smoother movement of goods and services. Better connectivity is likely to boost agricultural trade, tourism potential, and overall socio-economic development in the region.
