PM lays foundation stone for Rs 105 billion projects in Vizag

16 Nov 2022 CW Team

Prime Minister Narendra Modi chastised previous governments for their ad hoc approach to infrastructure development, claiming that it resulted in higher logistics costs and a snag in the supply chain. India has become the centre of hope for the entire world, and this is due to the government's ability to respond to the aspirations and needs of the country's citizens, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, where he dedicated to the nation multiple projects worth more than Rs. 105 billion.

Modi has stated that the development of advanced infrastructure was critical to inclusive growth and that previous governments' isolated approach to infrastructure development resulted in higher logistics costs and a disruption in the supply chain. The government has taken a new approach to infrastructure development because supply chain and logistics rely on multi-modal connectivity while focusing on an integrated view of development, he has reportedly added.
