The government has decided to fast-track the clearance of roads and highways projects in the remaining months of the current financial year.
After a directive from Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, the ministry of road transport and highways has decided to award 15 major projects, totalling 1,547 kilometres of roads, this financial year. Another 11 road projects (1,731 km) would be considered by the public-private partnership approval committee next week.
