New Delhi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday launched four major road infrastructure projects worth ₹ 1,941 crore in the national capital, including the long-pending Barapullah Phase 3 elevated corridor.
Shah inaugurated the projects at a function in Barapullah, which was attended by Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta and her cabinet colleagues, and Union Minister of State for Road Transport Harsh Malhotra, among others.
“Only with a double-engine government can Delhi’s stalled projects be opened to the public. She said her government is planning several projects to address traffic congestion, an issue that was neglected over the last 50 years. Minister for Public Works Department Parvesh Verma, who was present, said the 11-year wait for the Barapullah flyover was finally over. For the last 18 months, there has been no politics of allegations or excuses, but only work done by the government for the public,” Verma said.
Speaking at the event, Gupta attributed the launch of these projects to the “power of a double-engine government”. The Centre and the Delhi government are working together,” she said.
“Last year, we committed that the Barapullah flyover would be over in a year and we have done it.
