The A,B,C of Gati Shakti: Making sense of a criss-cross of projects

What is Gati Shakti?

Picture this: various government ministries and departments teaming up for a common cause – that’s the essence of the PM Gati Shakti National Master Plan (NMP). Introduced in 2021, this is a digital platform that intends to reshape how India approaches infrastructure development. The focus is on collaboration among ministries and departments, both at the Centre and in the states, to achieve overall growth and sustainability.

Here’s how it works. Rather than separate plans, Gati Shakti encourages a unified approach, with various government ministries and departments engaging in synergetic infrastructure development.
