Sagar's 21 Crore Transport Nagar Empty After a Year: Shifting Stalled Over High Rates

• Sagar's Transport Nagar, built at a cost of 21 crore rupees by Smart City, remains empty a year after its inauguration by CM Mohan Yadav.
• The 36-acre facility, equipped with roads, electricity, water, and public toilets, was intended to ease city traffic.
• Transporters are refusing to move due to high plot rates, demanding ₹500 per square foot instead of the Municipal Corporation's ₹2000-₹2500.
• Shifting the Transport Nagar would reduce heavy traffic, extend road lifespan, and prevent accidents, which have claimed lives in the past year.
• Municipal Corporation officials aim to make it operational by April, despite ongoing disputes with the Transport Union over pricing.
