The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party in its recently released manifesto for the ensuing Parliamentary elections has promised to build 60,000 km of National Highways in the next five years. It has also promised to double the length of the National Highways by 2022. In addition, it will bring in new technologies and designs in road construction, operation and maintenance, besides promising to complete Phase 1 of the Bharatmala Project with speed and efficiency. The party will launch Bharatmala 2.0 project to develop state road networks connecting interior areas with main roads. This will also uplift the economy and market opportunities of the concerned areas. Among others, the manifesto also mentions that Rs 10,000 crore has already been allocated to launch a program promoting clean energy and battery-operated vehicles. BJP also promises to connect 100% villages with rural roads, commission 100 new airports, and modernize 400 railway stations.
