After repeated delays in execution of road and rail connectivity projects with non-major ports, the Union cabinet has pulled up the Ministry of Railways (MoR) and Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH), and asked them to ensure timely completion of these projects on priority, Business Standard has learnt.
Non-major ports are the ones which are not owned by the central government.
At a meeting of PM Gati-Shakti Empowered Group of Secretaries (EGoS) on June 22, Cabinet Secretary Rajiv Gauba also asked the ministries to finalise a comprehensive action plan in coordination with the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) and integrate it into the PM Gati-Shakti framework by August 15, officials close to the development said.
