PM GatiShakti National Master Plan (PMGS NMP), a transformative approach for planning and development of infrastructure in the country, was launched in October 2021. The Network Planning Group (NPG), constituted under the PM Gati Shakti National Master Plan (PMGS-NMP) framework, evaluates the critical infrastructure projects of the Central Government to ensure integrated planning, multimodality, inter-modality, synchronization of efforts, last mile connectivity, comprehensive development in and around the project location, data-driven decision makings, etc at the planning stage. As on date, 352 infrastructure projects with total estimated cost of ₹ 16.10 Lakh Crore have been evaluated through the NPG mechanism. Out of these 352 projects, 201 projects have been sanctioned - out of which, 167 projects are under implementation.
Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure through Part-II (for PM Gati Shakti related expenditure) of the "Scheme for Special Assistance to States for Capital Investment for 2022-23" made a provision of ₹ 5000 crores for disbursement among the States for infrastructure development in the form of 50 years interest-free loan. Details of projects of the States, approved under the Part-II of the “Scheme for Special Assistance to the States for Capital Investment” and funds allocated.
Monitoring of implementation of ongoing Central Sector Projects, including the infrastructure projects planned and evaluated under the PM Gati Shakti framework, costing ₹150 crore and above are carried out by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI). A detailed flash report, showing status, cost overruns etc., is being published from July 2025 onwards on PAIMANA (Project Assessment Infrastructure Monitoring and Analytics for Nation Building) portal (i.e. https://ipm.mospi.gov.in/ReportPage).
Further, an institutional mechanism, i.e. Project Monitoring Group (PMG), has been set up with the objective of milestone-bases monitoring of projects and for expediting issue resolution and fast tracking the execution of large-scale infrastructure projects (having estimated cost of Rs.500 Crore & above). PMG has implemented a unique 5-tier Escalation framework that ensures issues are addressed at the appropriate level, beginning with the respective Ministry for regular issues and escalating upto the PRAGATI (Pro-Active Governance and Timely Implementation) forum for complex issues. This approach streamlines the review mechanism, prevents duplication and enables higher authorities to focus on critical issues. To resolve bottlenecks and ensure timely completion of projects, the PM GatiShakti National Master Plan has been integrated with the PMG that has expedited resolution of issues and regulatory bottlenecks in implementation of the projects.
This information was given by the Minister of State for Ministry of Commerce & Industry, Shri Jitin Prasada, in a written reply in the Lok Sabha today.
