Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: Maharashtra Jeevan Pradhikaran (MJP) has started laying a pipeline on the Paithan Bidkin main road under a new water supply scheme. The work on the road is also underway. This is causing traffic congestion on a big level. Considering this, superintendent of police Manish Kalwanyia closed the road for heavy vehicles coming from Bidkin to the city from May 10 onwards.
