On record
Construction of a 2.5km elevated flyover began in August 2017 but halted in October 2019 when the contracting agency walked off mid-project amid a payment dispute with the main concessionaire; work remained suspended for at least nine months despite an NHAI notice.
The official record states: "District administration said the contractor "left the work midway due to a 'tussle' over payments" with the main concessionaire."
“Forty percent built, then the contractor walked off over money, leaving 2.5 kilometres of very expensive pillars.”— Blunderlust Editorial Desk

“Two and a half kilometres of pillars on the Agra highway, forty percent built, holding up nothing but a payment dispute.”
“The contractor walked off in 2019 over money owed by the concessionaire, and Palwal has been driving around the evidence since.”
“NHAI issued a notice. The notice has had roughly the same effect on the flyover as the last nine months of silence.”
