New Delhi [India], August 28 (HBTV): Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini described the inauguration of six road projects worth INR 11,000 crore as a ‘historic and memorable day’ for Haryana and North India, calling it a ‘golden chapter’ in the state’s development.

‘Today is a historic and memorable day for Haryana as well as the entire North India. This day will be recorded as a golden chapter in the history of Haryana’s and especially NCR’s development. Today, six road projects worth INR 11,000 crore are being inaugurated in Delhi and Haryana at the hands of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. I thank him for these projects,’ Saini said.

Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated two major National Highway projects — the Delhi section of the Dwarka Expressway and the Urban Extension Road-II (UER-II) — in Delhi. Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini, Delhi CM Rekha Gupta and Union Minister Nitin Gadkari felicitated the Prime Minister at the ceremony.

The Delhi section of the Dwarka Expressway, developed at a cost of INR 5,360 crore, spans 10.1 km. It will provide multi-modal connectivity to Yashobhoomi, the DMRC Blue and Orange Lines, the upcoming Bijwasan railway station and the Dwarka Cluster Bus Depot. This section includes:

  • Package I: 5.9 km from the Shiv Murti intersection to the Road Under Bridge (RUB) at Dwarka Sector-21.

  • Package II: 4.2 km from Dwarka Sector-21 RUB to the Delhi–Haryana border, connecting directly with Urban Extension Road-II.

The 19 km Haryana section of the Dwarka Expressway had been inaugurated by the Prime Minister in March 2024.

In addition, PM Modi inaugurated the Alipur to Dichaon Kalan stretch of Urban Extension Road-II (UER-II), along with new links to Bahadurgarh and Sonipat, developed at a cost of INR 5,580 crore. The project is expected to ease congestion on Delhi’s Inner and Outer Ring Roads and busy intersections such as Mukarba Chowk, Dhaula Kuan and NH-09. The new spurs will improve industrial connectivity, reduce city traffic, and facilitate faster goods movement across the NCR.
