Secretary, DPIIT Anurag Jain while addressing the gathering stated that PM GatiShakti will start the virtuous cycle of pulling in private investments, increasing production, employment, and growth.
He added that the GatiShakti NMP was launched to propel the nation towards achieving the goal of Atma Nirbhar Bharat.
He also noted that the root cause of many problems faced by the common man is the huge disconnect between macro-level planning and its implementation at the micro level and that the GatiShakti NMP is a huge step towards resolving the same.
Synergies can be built to ensure integrated planning, synchronized implementation, and monitoring of infrastructure, economic and social sector projects/schemes through this platform, added Secretary Anurag Jain.
