“Based on the principles of PM-Gatishakti, the government shall develop industrial cities in different industrial corridors for balanced regional development. This shall promote industrialisation of backward regions of the country.”
This is being delivered: in August 2024 the Cabinet approved 12 new greenfield industrial smart cities under the National Industrial Corridor Development Programme (NICDP), with an investment of about Rs 28,602 crore, spread across 10 states along 6 major corridors and aligned with the PM GatiShakti National Master Plan for multimodal connectivity. Together with 8 previously approved nodes, this forms a network of about 20 industrial cities (built on plug-n-play and walk-to-work concepts) aimed at balanced regional development and industrialising newer regions. Construction and allotment are ongoing, so the pledge is in active delivery. Partial (strong action).

We will bring a commercial aircraft manufacturing ecosystem to Bharat. For this we will design a Policy for Aerospace Manufacturing in the country and try to develop our own passenger aircraft. We will strengthen the civil aviation ecosystem by encouraging Maintenance, Repairs and Overhaul activities as well as Aircraft Financing and Leasing Activities institutions through comprehensive government support programs under the Make in India initiative.
We will introduce the Amrit Kaal Civil Aviation Master Plan to transform our airports into regional international hubs, providing single-point connectivity to designated regions worldwide, with the vision to position Bharat as the leading aviation ecosystem of South Asia.
