The big infra plan: Under-construction NHs to be leased once operational.

The ministry of road transport and highways will monetise over 6,600 km of highways every year for the next four years under the recently-unveiled National Monetisation Pipeline (NMP). This will be done after bringing in all existing road projects and upcoming contracts under one umbrella.

The NMP document states that the approach followed by NITI Aayog includes both existing operational National Highway (NH) assets and new National Highway roads that are constructed and operationalised over the next four years.
