Why it matters
Odisha allocates 7.5% of its budget to roads and bridges, significantly higher than the 4.3% average across 31 states. This increased investment is crucial because the value of industries in Eastern India, including mines, power stations, and steel plants, depends on the local road and bridge network that links them to markets and suppliers.
