When it completes five years in office in 2022, less than 15 months from now, the Yogi Adityanath government would have finished work on three expressways. Work on the stateâs sixth and longest, the Ganga e-way, would have begun by then.
When Yogi Adityanath came to power in 2017, Uttar Pradesh had two functional expressways â the 165-kilometre-long Yamuna Expressway, which links Agra with the National Capital Region, and the Lucknow-Agra Expressway, stretching 302 km. These projects were completed over a period of nine years between 2008 and 2017.
