The National highway construction in 2020-21 has reached an all-time high of 40 km/day, despite the lockdown. In the past 2 years, due to the Covid pandemic and subsequent lockdown, we have seen widespread disruption of National Highway work.
The highways ministry built 13,298 kilometres in 2020-21, up from 10,237 kilometres in 2019-20.
The infrastructure boost has been fueled by the growing realisation of the current day situation. By spending on the National Highway sectors, a massive economic drive can be witnessed.
Modi vs Congress
The average per-day figure for road construction is 25 km since the narendra modi government came to power in May 2014.
It is nearly three times higher than the previous UPA government which was under Dr manmohan Singh.
Like the previous nda government, the Modi government has also given top priority to the highways sector, which had been hitting a rough patch since 2007.
