India's infrastructure landscape has witnessed a dramatic transformation over the past 12 years. The country's expressway network has expanded from just 93 km in 2014 to over 5,000 km, while national highways, railways, airports and metro systems have seen rapid growth. Landmark projects such as the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, Atal Tunnel, Vande Bharat and Kashmir rail connectivity have improved mobility, logistics and economic integration.
