Waterways to Bangladesh via Varanasi would be developed: Nitin Gadkari

Union Minister Nitin Gadkari said yesterday that waterways to facilitate smooth travel to Bangladesh via Varanasi would be developed in the Saryu river. The Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, Shipping and Water Resources, River Development and Ganga Rejuvenation laid the foundations of several projects worth Rs. 7,195 crore in Faizabad, including the construction of 632 kilometers of national highway in eastern UP.

Comment
The airboat from Australia will operate from Varanasi to Allahabad

"I am bringing an airboat from Australia that can land in water. This airboat will operate from Varanasi to Allahabad. We also have plans to operate double-decker buses that can fly," said the minister. Addressing Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya, who was present on the dais, Gadkari said, "Mauryaji, you also start such air buses in Uttar Pradesh."

Funds
IWAI to spend Rs, 5,500 crore for the projects: Gadkari

"It will solve your problem of traffic jam and these double-decker air buses are much cheaper than Metro," said Gadkari to Maurya. The minister further said river ports are also being developed that will help in smooth movement of goods to Myanmar and Bangladesh. He said that the Inland Waterways Authority of India (IWAI) would spend at least Rs. 5,500 crore for the projects.
