India's national highway construction slowed to 28.64 km a day in 2021-22 due to Covid-19 pandemic related disruptions and a longer-than-usual monsoon in some parts of the country. However, Union Road, Transport, and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari on June 6 said his target is to construct 60 kilometres of highway per day.
