Udupi MLA K. Raghupathi Bhat on Sunday said that the plan to widen the road between Adi Udupi and Malpe is in the final stages.
The road will be a four-lane one till the gate of Malpe Fishing Harbour, the MLA said in a statement.
The statement comes in the backdrop of some rumours being spread in social media platforms about milestones erected along Malpe-Tirthahalli NH 169A. Mr. Bhat said that the information on social media is far from the truth.
