Dehradun, April 05: Reeling under backwardness for long, Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s ancestral Lwali village in Uttarakhand has something to cheer about as the state government has announced a road to the area to honour the team India captain for winning the cricket World Cup.
Dhoni’s relatives as well as other villagers have been demanding developmental works during the past several years.
And now, Chief Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank has announced a new road for Lwali in Almora district as an additional reward for the achievement of Dhoni. The village has a population of 60 odd families.
Pokhriyal has already announced to give a residential plot or a house to Dhoni and cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar for winning the cup.
The chief minister had announced that Dhoni and Tendulkar would be given a residential plot or a house, in the picturesque town of Mussoorie.
