The significance of PM Gati Shakti aimed at fast tracking infrastructure development can be gauged from the statistics underlining that 323 infra projects, each incurring an investment of Rs 150 crore and above, have seen cost overruns of Rs 4.66 trillion by August 2022 end. Under Gati Shakti, as many as 197 critical infra gap projects have been identified for fast tracking.
