42 projects mapped 40 in pipeline Haryana accelerates infra push under PM GatiShakti

    Chandigarh, Apr 13 (PTI) Haryana has significantly accelerated its infrastructure development under the PM Gati Shakti framework, with 42 major projects already mapped and another 40 in the pipeline.
    Chief Secretary Anurag Rastogi here on Monday chaired a detailed review meeting to assess progress and fast-track implementation across departments.
    The meeting, organised by the Industries and Commerce Department, focused on strengthening integrated planning, improving inter-departmental coordination and ensuring time-bound execution of infrastructure projects.
    The Chief Secretary emphasised that PM Gati Shakti must be adopted as the central planning tool for all major projects to ensure efficiency, transparency and better outcomes.
    He stated that effective implementation of PM Gati Shakti will not only accelerate infrastructure development but also boost investment, generate employment and position Haryana as a leading state in logistics, industrial growth and economic development.
    PM Gati Shakti, a GIS-based platform integrating over 2,400 data layers, is enabling scientific and data-driven decision-making by providing real-time inputs across departments, an official statement said. The platform helps identify infrastructure gaps, optimise route planning and eliminate silo-based approaches, thereby significantly improving project execution timelines.
    The Chief Secretary reiterated that all infrastructure projects above Rs 100 crore must be routed through the PM GatiShakti framework.
    Commissioner and Secretary, Industries and Commerce, Amit Kumar Agrawal, said that the 42 mapped projects span 11 departments, including PWD (B&R), Irrigation, Urban Local Bodies, Energy and Haryana State Industrial & Infrastructure Development Corporation.
    Another 40 projects across multiple departments are in the pipeline and will be integrated into the platform in a phased manner, he said.
