PM Gati Shakti: 228 infra projects worth Rs.15.89 tn recommended

As many as 228 big-ticket infrastructure projects of different ministries, including roads and railways, worth Rs.15.89 tn have been recommended for approval under the PM Gati Shakti initiative so far, said Additional Secretary in the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), Rajeev Singh Thakur.

These projects have been recommended by the Network Planning Group (NPG) constituted under the PM Gati Shakti initiative launched in October 2021. There are several benefits of using the PM Gati Shakti system, including significant cuts in time and cost for planning these infrastructure projects.

The maximum number of projects recommended by the group are related to roads (108), railways (85), urban development (12) and four from the oil and gas ministry.

The inter-ministerial NPG meets every fortnight and appraises infra projects to ensure multi-modality, synchronisation of efforts and comprehensive development in and around the project location.
