These initiatives aim to drive socio-economic development by strengthening infrastructure planning, enhancing last-mile connectivity, and ensuring adequate infrastructure to support holistic growth. Shri Goyal highlighted that the Government had developed and launched the PM GatiShakti District Master Plans (PMGS-DMP) for 28 Aspirational Districts in October 2024. The plans facilitate geospatial-based planning for critical social and economic infrastructure such as schools, health centres, anganwadis, roads, and water pipelines using the PM GatiShakti platform.To enable effective planning, five sector-specific tools were developed for schools, health centres, anganwadis, roads, and water pipelines. Comprehensive capacity-building training for district teams was conducted at BISAG-N, Gandhinagar, Gujarat, in December 2024, followed by regular regional workshops and online sessions for officers across districts and States. Districts have already begun developing practical use cases for area development, including road widening projects such as the Damoh–Jabalpur road from two to four lanes, solar park site selection in Damoh, administrative boundary planning, drinking water provision under the Jal Jeevan Mission, electrification of unelectrified villages, road connectivity for unconnected habitations, and watershed management planning in Baran district. Building on these successes, the PM GatiShakti District Master Plan is now being progressively rolled out across all 112 Aspirational Districts, enabling data-driven, integrated planning for social and economic infrastructure development nationwide. Shri Goyal also launched a series of transformative initiatives under the PM GatiShakti National Master Plan, aimed at enhancing infrastructure planning, data-driven decision-making, and cross-sectoral collaboration. The launches include the Knowledge Management System (KMS), Decentralized Data Uploading and Management System (DUMS), PMGS NMP Dashboard as part of the Comprehensive Multi-Sector Reporting System, and PM GatiShakti Compendium Volume-3. Shri Goyal noted that over the past four years, numerous Ministries and States have undertaken innovative measures, developed digital tools, and created use cases demonstrating how geospatial planning can be leveraged to improve infrastructure development and decision-making. The Knowledge Management System serves as a centralized repository of digital tools, use cases, SOPs, compendiums, and training resources, promoting replicability, scalability, and cross-learning across Ministries, Departments, and States/UTs. At the core of the KMS is the integrated NMP Dashboard, which provides real-time insights into onboarded data layers, registered users, planned projects, and reported issues through the Issue Management System, forming the basis of the Comprehensive Multi-Sector Reporting System. Complementing this, the Decentralized Data Uploading and Management System ensures accurate, uniform, and accountable data management through a three-stage workflow of data upload by designated managers, review by nodal officers, and final publication by BISAG-N, enhancing transparency, operational efficiency, and multi- sectoral coordination. The launch of PM GatiShakti Compendium Volume-3 showcases a wide range of on-ground success stories across infrastructure, social, and economic sectors, demonstrating the transformative impact of PM GatiShakti in driving integrated development, improving connectivity, and fostering inclusive growth across India. With these initiatives, PM GatiShakti continues to set new benchmarks in integrated infrastructure planning, data-driven governance, and inclusive development, reinforcing India’s vision of a modern, connected, and resilient nation. *** RT/ AN/ IB (Release ID: 2178546)
