The Indian government has announced a big plan to build many new infrastructure projects, like roads, energy plants, and ports.
These projects will cost a lot of money, about ₹17 trillion, and will be built with help from private companies.

Most of the projects are roads and highways, but there are also projects for energy, water, and shipping.

The Union Finance Ministry announced 852 infrastructure projects under the PPP model, costing ₹17 trillion.
