Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari on Thursday said there is zero corruption in his Ministry.
He said the cost escalation in the national highway projects is almost nil, and he does not allow the contractors to meet him.
“The cost escalation is almost nil. Every year we do projects worth Rs five lakh crore and so far I have done Rs 50 lakh crore worth works. I don’t allow contractors to meet me. There is zero corruption in our (NHAI) work,” Gadkari said.
