Government considers one time fund infusion to revive languishing NH project

Government is also considering one time fund infusion to revive and physically complete some of these languishing projects being implemented on Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) mode of delivery only. This proposal of moderate fund infusion would help physical completion of languishing NH projects expeditiously bringing relief, thereby, to the citizens/highway users in the area. 

Delay in land acquisition and Statutory Clearances, local law and order issues, shortage of construction material etc. are main factors contributing to delay in implementation of National Highway (NH) projects under National Highways Development Project (NHDP). Most of these are addressed with the support of the respective State Governments and attempts taken by the Government to streamline the process for such statutory clearances. 

This information was given by Minister of State for Road Transport and Highways, Shri Pon Radhakrishnan in a written reply in Rajya Sabha today.
