The project to be completed in six phases will reduce travel time between Jaipur and Delhi by an hour Work has commenced on six-lane expressway between Delhi and Ahmedabad via Jaipur, Ajmer
and Udaipur. The project to be completed in six phases will reduce travel time between Jaipur and Delhi by an hour. Thanks to Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje’s efforts and union minister,
Nitin Gadkari’s interest, the project file moved on a fast speed. What was supposed to be an expressway between Jaipur and Delhi was extended till Ahmedabad due to efforts by Vasundhara
Raje. Prime Minister Narendra Modi did bhoomi pujan of all the five phases in August. However, progress on the ground is sluggish because land acquisition has been slow. NHAI CGM M K Jain
said that once the land acquisition matter is resolved the concessioner has assured of finishing the work in six months. Two stretches between Delhi to Jaipur and Jaipur to Kishangarh are
already complete. The rest of the project is divided in five phases. The NHAI has awarded tenders for all five phases and the work has begun on four of them.
