GLOBAL INTEREST IN PM GATISHAKTI & LEADS 2023 REPORT FOR UNBIASED LOGISTICS INSIGHTS SAYS SUMITA DAWRA

Q1: Is the Government planning on taking PM GatiShakti National Master Plan on the global stage?

Yes, the Government is planning to offer the technical architecture of PM GatiShakti National Master Plan (PMGS NMP) globally to the countries showing interest to adopt this technology. The PM GatiShakti plan has attracted interest in international forums where it has been showcased, such as at the B20, in neighbouring countries like Bangladesh, Nepal and seven Indian Missions. The GatiShakti framework was presented at the ‘In Smart Bangladesh Conference’ on 15 November, 2023.

Various collaboration opportunities to share technology and train personnel through exchange programmes were highlighted. We have also showcased the PM GatiShakti framework to the Government of Nepal, including the benefits of infrastructure planning using PMGS NMP for multimodal connectivity. A high-level delegation including senior representatives from various ministries/departments of Nepal visited India between 13-20 October 2023 wherein we had close interactions with the Logistics Division, DPIIT, including the Network Planning Group (NPG) members and Bhaskaracharya National Institute for Space Applications and Geoinformatics.

Then we also presented PMGS NMP at the ADB conference on regional cooperation and integration through economic corridor development (ECD) at Tbilisi, Georgia during 5-7 September 2023 as even the GatiShakti technology at the Asia-Pacific Business Forum organised by UNESCAP at Hong Kong in November 2023. The delegation from India to Japan, in both physical and virtual format, during Japan’s National Small Industry Day have highlighted the positive impact of the PM GatiShakti NMP in propelling infrastructure and industrial township development in India.
