NHAI to Use All Municipal Waste in Roads by 2027:
The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is planning to use 100% of India’s municipal waste for road construction by 2027. This initiative was announced by Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari during a convocation ceremony at an engineering college near Chennai. By integrating waste management with infrastructure development, the government aims to address urban pollution while reducing the reliance on traditional, carbon-intensive construction materials.
