Nashik: The state govt on Monday told NMC to immediately undertake road repairs in the Ambad industrial estate of MIDC.
The state govt also asked Nashik Municipal Corporation (NMC) administration to prepare a blueprint for making 68 km roads in both Ambad and Satpur MIDC areas concrete in phases.

Hiray said there are 68 km of roads in industrial estates of MIDC located in the jurisdiction of the municipal corporation, including 36 km of roads in Ambad and 32 km in Satpur MIDC areas.
Replying to calling attention motion, minister of state for urban development and transport Madhuri Misal said during a meeting with NMC before calling attention motion, instructions were given to undertake repair works immediately at Ambad MIDC areas in the city.
