In an effort to transform Delhi into a less congested and pollution-free city, the Centre has unveiled ambitious infrastructure projects, Chief Minister Rekha Gupta announced on Wednesday.

Following a meeting with Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari, Gupta disclosed that Rs 24,000 crore worth of project reports have been prepared, including plans for an elevated road and a tunnel to the IGI airport.

In what is termed as 'double-engine' governance by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), these projects are expected to leverage both the central and city governments' strengths to ease traffic and support sustainable urban development.
