1. PM GATISHAKTI NATIONAL MASTER PLAN
- GIS-Based Multimodal Planning: A unified geospatial digital portal mapping infrastructure projects. Integrates 1,700+ data layers across ministries to synchronize road, rail, and port alignments.
- Silo Breakdown: Integrates 16 infrastructure ministries to coordinate construction timelines, preventing repetitive road-digging and ensuring last-mile connectivity.
- PM GatiShakti Public: Grants private industrial developers access to 230+ non-sensitive datasets to optimize commercial supply chains and manufacturing setups.
2. STRATEGIC PIPELINES & LOGISTICS POLICIES
- National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP): National investment pipeline spanning energy (24%), roads (19%), railways (13%), and urban infrastructure (16%) to crowd-in private capital.
- National Monetisation Pipeline (NMP): Monetizing operational brownfield state assets (e.g., NHAI toll roads, power transmission lines, gas pipelines) to finance new greenfield projects.
- National Logistics Policy (NLP): Focuses on digital integration using the ULIP (Unified Logistics Interface Platform) to track cargo, streamline customs, and reduce documentation delays.
3. PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE SECTORS
- Roads (Bharatmala Pariyojana): Corridor-based highway development focusing on expressways, economic corridors, and border road security.
- Ports (Sagarmala Project): Port-led industrialization, reducing port turnaround times, and boosting the blue coastal economy.
- Railways: Developing Dedicated Freight Corridors (DFCs) to shift freight traffic from high-emission roads to rail, alongside 100% route electrification.
