During the meeting, the Prime Minister reviewed five major infrastructure projects related to roads, railways, power, water resources and coal sectors, spanning five states and involving an investment of over ₹40,000 crore. He also reviewed the implementation of the PM SHRI scheme and emphasized that PM SHRI schools should serve as models for holistic, future-ready education, with a focus on outcomes rather than mere infrastructure creation. Chief Secretaries were directed to closely monitor progress, and senior officers were encouraged to undertake field visits.

Reflecting on PRAGATI’s evolution, the Prime Minister said the platform exemplifies cooperative federalism by bringing together ministries, departments and state governments on a single problem-solving forum. Since 2014, 377 projects have been reviewed and nearly 94 per cent of identified issues resolved, unlocking several long-pending projects. Linking PRAGATI with the vision of Viksit Bharat @ 2047, he called for institutionalising similar mechanisms at the state level to further simplify governance, improve performance and enhance citizens’ ease of living.
