Work on the Purvanchal Expressway under package three in Sultanpur. (UPIEDA)
Work on the 340-kilometer long Purvanchal Expressway is progressing in full swing after the Yogi Adityanath government brought forward the deadline for the project and extended the expressway up to Ballia on the border with Bihar.
On 2 June, Chief Secretery Anup Chandra Pandey had inspected the under-construction Purvanchal Expressway from air. Adityanath wants the 340 kilometer long expressway to be complete by August next year and work on two other projects — the Bundelkhand Expressway and the Gorakhpur Link Expressway — to start in three months. He has also ordered survey work for the ambitious Ganga Expressway linking Meerut and Prayagraj to begin in the next three months.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
