Prime Minister Narendra Modi has highlighted a series of critical infrastructural projects approved by the Union Cabinet, underscoring their potential to enhance India's developmental landscape. Chief among these is the green light for Jaipur Metro's Phase-2 expansion, a 41-km corridor with 36 stations, promising significant urban mobility improvements and 'Ease of Living' enhancements.

In Arunachal Pradesh, two hydroelectric projects have been approved, aimed at boosting sustainable energy production.
