6. Objective of Bharatmala Project:
The main objective of Bharatmala project is to improve the state of roads in India.
Following are few other features of the project:-
• 50 national corridors will be constructed, which will reduce the traffic congestion of
freights. With these corridors the freight will move on national highways.
• Across the country 550 districts will be connected. Currently, only around 300
districts are connected with national highways.
• It will introduce the Logistic Performance Index (LPI) of the country. It is a parameter
which helps identify challenges and opportunities they face on performance of trade
and logistics.
• It will increase the employment opportunities for the people.

7. Bharatmala Project Phases
• The Bharatmala project can be broadly divided into phases-
Phase 1 (2017-2022)
Phase 2 (2024
• Current Status of Bharatmala Project Phase 1
The deadline to finish Bharatmala project phase 1 was by 2022, however it seems that it
will be delayed. The project is delayed by four years due to cost overruns, land acquisition
and covid. As per the ICRA rating agency, work on phase 1 will be completed by financial
year 2026, that too if contracts are awarded by 2023. Also, the cost of the project has
increased to Rs 8.5 lakh crores.

10. KEY FEATURES OF THE SCHEME
•Improving the quality of roads - The launch of the scheme has been done for bring a new
wave of development in the nation in the form of well-maintained and developed roads. Under
this project, the construction of roads, in all parts of the nation will be undertaken.

it will include many other related schemes as well. With the completion of all the schemes, the
overall success of the scheme will be guaranteed.
•Total tenure of the program -The central government has the plans of finishing the
scheme within a span of five years. Thus, all is set for finishing the first phase before the end
of 2022.

11. •Segmentation in phases - Due to the sheer magnitude and spread of the scheme, it will be
divided into seven distinct phases. As of now, the first phase in under construction.
•Constriction on a daily basis - To finish the first phase in time, the respective department
has made efforts of constructing at least 18 km of path on a daily basis. To beat the clock,
continued efforts are being made to raise it to 30 km/day.
