Jharsuguda : Bargarh Lok Sabha member Pradeep Purohit met Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari and emphasised the need for constructing a bridge over the Ib river and upgrading NH-49 to four-lane to reduce the number of accidents on this busy route.

Purohit also met Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi and took up the issue of pollution caused by heavy and medium industries in Jharsuguda.

He said there was lack of accountability on the part of the industries to check pollution.
