Nitin Gadkari shares plan to make Delhi congestion-free, says new links will halve traffic
Union road transport and highways minister Nitin Gadkari, at the inauguration of the Delhi sections of the Urban Extension Road-II (UER-II) and Dwarka Expressway on Sunday, said that the opening of these two links is likely to halve traffic jams in Delhi. He also outlined the Union government's upcoming infrastructure plans to improve connectivity between high-speed corridors in Delhi-NCR, which will improve logistics in the region and reduce costs. PM Modi, CM Rekha Gupta and Union minister Nitin Gadkari. (HT) 'The people of Delhi-NCR will get a lot of relief from these two projects. If I say that 50% of traffic jams in Delhi will reduce due to the UER-II and Dwarka Express highway, I don't think it will be surprising,' he said. Crediting Prime Minister Narendra Modi for directing his ministry to develop world-class infrastructure, he said, 'At that time, the situation in Delhi was not good. There were traffic jams decided to make Delhi a world-class city and made a plan to make it congestion free.' Gadkari said plans are underway to link UER-II with the Delhi-Katra Expressway, link Jammu and Kashmir and Punjab with the Delhi airport, and the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway with UER-II. 'The upcoming Delhi-Dehradun Expressway is also connected from UER-II. Travel time from vehicles coming from the Dehradun side to the Delhi airport will come down from 2-2.5 hours to just 45 minutes. A road link will also connect Noida, Faridabad with the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway, which will also work as a bypass for east Delhi,' the minister said. He said that a direct link from southwest Delhi to the Noida-Faridabad road will be built, and a tunnel road connecting Shiv Murti–Mahipalpur (Dwarka Expressway) with Nelson Mandela Road (Vasant Kunj) will be built. Elevated corridors on the AIIMS-Mahipalpur-Gurugram routes will reduce snarls on the inner and outer ring roads. Gadkari said all these road projects will also reduce the cost of logistics to make Indian goods competitive in the global market. Citing studies by multiple IITs, Gadkari said the logistics cost has reduced by 6% due to the improvement of roads and by 2026, the logistics cost will be in single digits. The union minister said of the ₹65,000 crore worth of projects envisioned to ease congestion in Delhi, projects worth ₹48,000 crore have been completed in the past decade. He said three out of the six greenfield expressways connecting Delhi are ready, and the remaining three, including the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, will be completed by December 2026. The other two are the Delhi-Katra Expressway and the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway. The Dwarka Expressway, Delhi-Meerut and Delhi Peripheral Ring Road have already been completed. Recalling litigation that held up the peripheral ring road, he said: 'With great difficulty, even after many problems, we completed the project, and heavy incoming traffic to Delhi was diverted.' He said the Delhi Meerut Expressway, signal-free corridors between Mukarba Chowk and Sonepat, and Dhaula Kuan and Gurugram, eased the twin problems of pollution and congestion. Gadkari said the two projects inaugurated on Sunday were envisioned in the Delhi Master Plan of 2001, but previous governments did not act on it. According to details shared, the upcoming tunnel project between Shiv Murti and Nelson Mandela Marg will be 5km long, and consist of two ducts with three lanes each. It will pass under Delhi's southern ridge at a depth of 20-40 metres. The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) will provide cross-passage and lay-by zones at every 500-metre interval, according to an NHAI report. The project is likely to cost ₹3,500 crore. The AIIMS to Mahipalpur-Gurugram elevated corridor is likely to be 20km long and cost around ₹5,000 crore. According to an NHAI decongestion report shared with the Delhi government, the highway connecting UER-II with Delhi-Katra Expressway will be around 20 kilometres long and is likely to cost around ₹4,000 crore. Once complete, it will serve as an alternative to the NH-44. Similarly, the UER-II extension to the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway will start from Alipur and end near Tronica City, covering around 17km. This extension is likely to cost around ₹3,350 crore and would provide faster connectivity to commuters from Haryana and Rajasthan heading towards Dehradun. 'It will decongest Delhi by diverting long distance and freight traffic from central roads easing pressure on NH-48, NH-44, Ring Roads and Barapullah elevated corridor,' the report reads. A further eastern extension of the UER-II, which will act as a new bypass for east Delhi, connecting Noida, Ghaziabad and Faridabad, will be around 65 kilometres long and ₹7,500 crore. 'The highway will connect major roads such as Delhi-Dehradun Expressway, Delhi-Meerut Expressway, Noida-Greater Noida Expressway and DND-Faridabad highway. It will provide connectivity to towns such as Loni, Baghpat, Ghaziabad, Noida with North, Northwest and West Delhi,' the report reads.

Chhetri is not there as team playing a preparatory tournament, doors are open for him: Jamil
Newly-appointed India head coach Khalid Jamil on Sunday (August 17, 2025) cleared the air about the leaving out of talismanic striker Sunil Chhetri from the CAFA Nations Cup national camp, saying it was just a preparatory tournament for the crucial Asian Cup qualifying round matches in October. Jamil, who succeeded Manolo Marquez as India head coach earlier this month, on Friday named 35 probables for the upcoming CAFA Nations Cup in Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, with Chhetri missing from the list. Jamil did not say in so many words but made it clear that Chhetri is expected to walk into the national team for the Asian Cup qualifying round matches against Singapore on October 9 (away) and October 14 (home). 'He [Chhetri] is not there in this camp because we are playing a tournament which will essentially serve as a preparation for our Asian Cup Qualifiers,' Jamil said on the second day of the national camp here. 'I also want to try out a few other players during this FIFA window. I had a talk with him about the same. It's always a pleasure to have a player like him in the team, and the door is always open for him. 'Sunil is a legend of Indian football. I have played against him, I've seen him play on numerous occasions, and he is one of my favourite players. He is a role model for Indian football," he said in a release from the All India Football Federation (AIFF). Placed in Group B of the CAFA Nations Cup, India face co-host Tajikistan on August 29, Iran on September 1 and Afghanistan on September 4. The third-place match and the final will be played on September 8 in Hisor and Tashkent (Uzbekistan), respectively. The national camp began on Saturday featuring 22 players while the remaining 13, who were doing club duties at the ongoing Durand Cup, are likely to join in a few days. The AIFF has urged all the clubs to release national team players for the tournament. The 41-year-old Chhetri took international retirement after playing against Kuwait in June last year but made a return for national duty in the match against Maldives in March this year following a request from Marquez to help the team in the Asian Cup qualifiers third round. Chhetri has played four matches since then and scored once -- in the 3-0 win over Maldives. India drew Bangladesh 0-0 and lost to Hong Kong 0-1 in the Asian Cup qualifiers, leaving the country in a difficult position to qualify for the continental showpiece in 2027. In between India lost 0-2 to Thailand in an international friendly. Marquez quit after the string of poor performance of the team. 'CAFA Nations Cup good opportunity to play against quality opponents' The CAFA Nations Cup will be 48-year-old Jamil's first international assignment, and Jamil said the central Asian tournament will be a good opportunity for his team to play against quality opponents. "This will be India's first-ever participation in the CAFA Nations Cup, and it will be a good opportunity for us to play against stronger and quality opponents like Tajikistan and Iran in CAFA Nations Cup. This will definitely be beneficial for us to prepare for AFC Asian Cup qualifiers. "There is absolutely no excuse for us, as we have enough time to prepare for it. We may be treating these as preparatory games, but this is serious business for us," he said. Tasked with turning the Blue Tigers' fortunes around, Jamil wants to take one step at a time. 'We must do the simple things first and go step by step. We are treating these matches as friendly games, but I want to take players who are fit. When I say fit, I mean, the players who will play must be 100% fit,' said Jamil. 'We started the camp with some players still not available, but we've got the players we need to begin our preparations. We had a good first training session yesterday [Saturday], but there's a lot to improve on. "The important thing is that we remain united as a team. For the national interest, we would like to request co-operation from clubs to release players on time, to ensure their adequate participation during the preparatory camp," he added. The former Jamshedpur FC and NorthEast United coach said he needs time to adjust to the team. "The players also need time to adjust to me. My doors are always open to everybody. Whoever is doing well will be selected.' On his appointment as India head coach, Jamil said, 'It is my pleasure to serve the country. It has always been my dream to do this, and it has now come true, so that feels very good. "There is a big task ahead of us, and we've got many areas that we need to work on. I am fully aware how big a responsibility it is for me, but I feel thankful that the Federation (AIFF) felt me worthy to be entrusted with it.'

IAF Heritage Museum loses altitude as visitor inflow dips
Chandigarh: The initial burst of enthusiasm about the Indian Air Force Heritage Museum in the Tricity seems to be waning. The dedicated Air Force heritage centre launched by Union defence minister Rajnath Singh with much fanfare in May, 2023, has suffered a significant dip in footfall since its inception. Its expansion plan has also remained restricted to paper for over one year. "Initially, Indian Air Force and Chandigarh administration were in talks to expand the IAF Heritage Museum to start its second phase. Preparation of an MoU was discussed and both parties prepared points for the same. However, there has been no progress for more than one year," sources in the Chandigarh administration revealed. Despite the tourist centre boasting of modern paraphernalia like virtual and augmented reality, holograms, simulators, and electromechanical enclosures, the flow of visitors has gone down. Sources in the administration said that visitors from the Tricity thronged the IAF Heritage Museum initially but the inflow started thinning down. Now, most of the visitors are people from outside the Tricity. As per records of the Chandigarh administration, 58,273 people visited the Air Force Museum in the eight months from its inception on May 8, 2023 to December, 2023. From January, 2024 to December, 2024, the number of visitors at the museum located in the heritage building of the city in Sector 18, fell to 48,712. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Could This NEW Collagen Blend Finally Reduce Your Cellulite?

According to records, Chandigarh administration earned significant revenue from the IAF Heritage Museum. From its launch in May 2023 to the end of July 2025, the authority earned over Rs 1.1 crore, including both entry fee of visitors as well as immersive experiences.
