India is envisaging a revolution of sorts in the infrastructure sector in the next quarter of a century riding on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision to make India a ‘Developed Nation’ by 2047. By building sustainable and modern infrastructure that can match that of any developed country, particularly through advanced transportation networks, including roads, railways, ports, and airports, India intends to accomplish the overall goal of over 8% growth, in the future. The Central Government has launched Gati Shakti programme with a vision to bring under one umbrella, all the major mobility infrastructure projects of various ministries and state governments, such as Bharatmala (roads & highways), Sagarmala (a string of ports), inland waterways, dry/land ports and Ude Desh ka Aam Nagrik (UDAN) or a slew of regional airports enabling air travel access to a common man. Already India has made a headway in building national highways in a big way connecting all passenger, trade, and freight points. About 13,800 km of highway construction is envisaged with an outlay of Rs 2.81 lakh crore in 2023-24 alone, up 33% from a year ago. The railway line to high altitude areas of Ladakh, a railroad tunnel beneath the river Brahmaputra, a Bullet Train project between Mumbai and Ahmedabad, the Arunachal Frontier Highway, and the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link Bridge, are just a few ambitious projects that are on the anvil now. Besides, numerous hydroelectric dams, high-speed trains, power projects, river navigation projects, solar power hubs, and metro rails projects are underway across the country. Already there are 12 major ports and over 200 non-major ports in the country, along the 7,500-km long coastline. Vadhavan Port in Maharashtra, which is under construction, would be the 13th major port in India. The ambitious Sagarmala project, intended to reduce the logistics cost of trade through a string of ports across the coastline with minimal infrastructure investment, is expected to be completed much ahead of independent India turning 100. The government plans to bring down the cost of logistics in the economy from an estimated 14% to 10% by adopting advanced mobility technologies, mainly to improve the country’s competitive edge in global manufacturing and trade, and for a greater role in supply chains. For ensuring successful delivery of high-quality infrastructure delivering social and economic value, and do not compromising on health, safety, environment, sustainability, and governance (ESG) benchmarks, the risks should be properly assessed in advance, monitored, and corrective actions be taken midway through. For this, all the technical and quality parameters of the project be studied even before the project is approved.
