India becomes the second-largest country with the biggest road network after beating China. While the United States remains in the number one position.
India successfully reserved the position by spreading 1.45-lakh km of road connectivity over the last 8 years.
Since April 2019, the NHAI has constructed more than 30,000 kms of highways across the country, including major expressways like the one that connects Delhi with Meerut, or Lucknow with Ghazipur in UP.
In August last year, NHAI set the Guinness World Record by successfully constructing the 75 km continuous single bituminous concrete road between Amravati and Akola on NH-53 in a record time of 105 hours and 33 minutes.
