A teacher questioned Cooperative Minister Prem Kumar about traffic issues in Gayaji. During the inauguration of a 16-day fair, Radheshyam Sharma asked why it takes 2.5 hours to cover 25 km from Gaya to Wazirganj. The minister cited ongoing road construction, but Sharma pointed out an unfinished overbridge project delayed for 8 years. He highlighted daily 2-2.5 hour traffic jams at Rasalpur railway crossing. The incomplete overbridge, started 8 years ago, hasn't solved the problem. Trains on the Gaya-Koderma line cause the crossing to close every 30 minutes, leading to 15-20 minute traffic queues.
