The Border Roads Organisation (BRO) has initiated key infrastructure projects in Chhattisgarh's Maoist-affected Bastar division, aiming to boost connectivity and security. Targeting districts like Bijapur, Sukma, Narayanpur, and Dantewada, the BRO will build 13 roads covering 683 km and 11 bridges spanning over 6,211 metres. These developments are vital for improving access for security forces and delivering essential services to isolated communities. In partnership with the Chhattisgarh government, the BRO seeks to bridge decades of neglect and help integrate these regions into the national framework, fostering long-term development and stability in historically underserved areas.

The projects are concentrated in the Bastar division, specifically targeting districts such as Bijapur, Sukma, Narayanpur, and Dantewada. Over the past three decades, these areas have experienced significant influence from Maoist groups, leading to a severe lack of infrastructure development.
Under these new initiatives, the BRO plans to construct 13 roads, collectively stretching over 683 kilometers. Additionally, 11 bridges, with a total length exceeding 6,211 meters, are also part of this ambitious undertaking. Such infrastructure is vital for enabling easier movement for security forces and facilitating access for development programs.
The BRO, widely recognized for its expertise in building roads and bridges in challenging and remote terrains, is collaborating closely with the Chhattisgarh government on these projects. This partnership aims to bridge the long-standing developmental gap in these areas, integrating remote communities into the national mainstream. The presence of robust infrastructure is also critical for effective counter-insurgency operations and for ensuring that government services and economic opportunities can reach the local populace.
