Keonjhar: Women members of the Maa Jungle Janani Self-Help Group (SHG) from Dumurinali village under Junga panchayat in Harichandanpur block of this district came together to construct a road, sources said Saturday.
According to the information received, the village lacked a proper road from Naiguda to Dumurinali, and since the existing dirt road was not maintained, villagers were facing significant difficulties in commuting. It was not even possible to ride bicycles on the kutcha road, and during the rainy season, walking was nearly impossible due to mud.
