Jaipur Project Package
The Ek Varsh-Parinaam Utkarsh Rajasthan programme held in Jaipur on 17 December 2024 covered 24 projects in four sectors: energy, roads, railways and water. Their total value exceeded Rs 46,300 crore. Of these, 9 projects worth over Rs 11,000 crore were inaugurated and foundation stones were laid for 15 projects worth over Rs 35,300 crore.
For examination purposes, keep the date, total project count, total value, four sectors and the 9-plus-15 stage split together. Inauguration indicates completed or dedicated assets, whereas laying a foundation stone indicates forthcoming work; the two administrative actions should not be treated as identical.
