India: The GOI is responsible for consistently working on numerous projects simultaneously for the betterment of the people and the nation’s overall growth and development.

Recently, the Indian government announced two major decisions concerning two projects in the infrastructure and education sector that the Union cabinet took. Both of the decisions aim to enhance the efficiency of both sectors and improve the lives of people as much as possible.

The two major decisions announced in the infrastructure and education sector are mentioned below in detail for one’s reference.

Expansion Of Delhi Metro

Metro is one of those modes of transportation that helps people reach one part of the city from the other in as much less time as possible. It isn’t only quick but disciplined compared to other modes of local transportation, especially in metropolitan cities like Delhi.

Hence, the Union cabinet has approved the metro rail project in the Delhi NCR region. This would be the 4th phase of the Delhi Metro rail project wherein the focus would be given to building the Rithala-Kundli corridor which is around 26.46 km long. The Rithala-Kundli corridor would allow people to travel from parts of Delhi like Narela, Bawana, and Rohini to parts of Haryana in as much less time as possible. The newly built line would cover around 21 stations and aims to extend the present Shaheed Sthal (New Bus Adda) in Ghaziabad, UP to Nathupur in Haryana as well.

A total of Rs 6,230 crore has been released for the Delhi Metro rail project and the whole work will be supervised by the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Limited (DMRC).

Establishments Of Kendriya & Navodaya Vidyalayas

Education is one of the basic rights of every citizen of India but sadly, for millions, it is turning into a luxury.

To stop it from turning into a luxury, the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs which is chaired by the present Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has decided to establish 28 more Navodaya Vidyalayas in remote parts of the country under the Navodaya Vidyalaya Scheme and 85 more Kendriya Vidyalayas.

Around 2356 crore will be released for the development of the 28 Navodaya Vidyalayas over 5 years from 2024 to 2029. The 28 new Navodaya Vidyalayas would be established in states like Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Telangana, and West Bengal.

The 85 new Kendriya Vidyalayas would also be established across the country and the schools already present in Shivamogga, Karnataka would also be expanded. Around 5872 crore would be released for the same over 8 years from 2025 to 2032.

Conclusion

The recent decision of the government of India to expand and establish the infrastructure and education sector would improve the lives of the citizens of India considerably to a great extent.
