During the 12th Edition of the Times Group's ET Edge Supply Chain Summit 2025, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari highlighted the importance of reducing logistics costs to propel India towards a $5 trillion economy. He attributed the successful reduction in GDP's logistics costs to the development of expressways, economic corridors, and smart infrastructure. Gadkari also emphasized the significance of embracing clean fuels to drive efficiency and sustainability in the transport sector. India's transition from manual tolls to digital tolling through initiatives like FASTag is streamlining travel and reducing environmental impact. The Minister pointed out that the government is promoting the use of alternative fuels such as hydrogen, biodiesel, and ethanol, with hydrogen being hailed as the future fuel. Gadkari expressed optimism about India becoming a net energy exporter in the next few years by leveraging clean energy sources. The implementation of projects like CNG motorcycles, electric trucks, and hydrogen highway pilots is revolutionizing the country's transport sector and contributing to India's global standing in the electric vehicle market. Furthermore, initiatives like PM Gati Shakti's multi-modal hubs, port expansions, and national highway enhancements are enhancing connectivity, reducing costs, and fostering growth for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). Gadkari urged stakeholders to commit to adopting clean fuels, multimodal logistics, and inclusive infrastructure for a sustainable and prosperous future, emphasizing that the country is not just building roads but shaping the future of India's transport landscape.
