The Chambal River forms the border of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and other side it is also forms border of UP & Madhya Pradesh some distance away.Figure below shows for better understanding-
                        




  • In this Chambal area least backward, don't have proper road,industry,water facilities and there is much less industry.You heard that most of famous dacoits (robbers) belongs to the area once in 80's,90's. That's why this area chosen for development. So road will be constructed ,stating from Bhind to Kota along the Chambal river.

Golden quadrilateral road

  • As discussed above the total length of the proposed Chambal Expressway is 404 Kms out of which: 
        1) MP - 309 Km
        2) Rajasthan - 78 Km and 
        3) UP - 17 Km

    Chambal Expressway Connectivity :

  • The proposed project of Chambal Expressway will provide cross-connectivity with:
          - Golden Quadrilateral's Delhi-Kolkata corridor.
          - North-South Corridor
          - East-West Corridor
          - and Delhi-Mumbai-Expressway.
  • It will also provide an alternate route from Kanpur to Kota through Madhya Pradesh. 
  • Nitin Gadkari said, to bring down the cost of the upcoming project, royalty and tax exemptions on the project material will save more than Rs 1,000 crore.
  • The royalty on minerals for the upcoming project has already exempted by the Madhya Pradesh state.
  • The land acquisition cost that Rs 650 crore will be shared by the all states. 

      Who will be benefited :

  • The proposed Chambal expressway could be a game-changer for tribal communities and poor living in the remote areas mainly in the Chambal region as it is considered as the most backward area in the country.
  • The farmers from all the three states that is MP, Rajasthan, and UP will be the biggest beneficiaries as they will be able to send their produce to the markets of Delhi, Mumbai. 
  • It will help in industrialization and development of the Chambal division of Madhya Pradesh and also offer huge employment in this area. 
  • Logistics parks will be constructed on the lines of multi-modal logistics parks in Indore,Jabalpur, and Jaipur.

      Importance of road:

  • For economic development road plays an important role.It will automatically creates economic development.
  • In the world, the road network of India is the second largest,after USA.India has about 58.98 lakh kms of the road network,as on year 2020. It comprises of national highways, expressways, state highways, major district roads, other district roads, and village roads. Details as mention below-

            1) The length of National highways/expressways - 1,32,500 kms,
      
         2) The length of State highways -1,56,694 kms.

         3) Length of other roads - 56,08,477 kms.

  • Also note that the highways/expressways constitute only about 1.7% of the length of all roads and also carry about 40% of the road traffic.
  • So guys I guess it's a very good decision to make this express for future development. Till now, Chambal, which has been identified as well-known bandits, is going to be high-tech. The Central Government has given its approval for construction of Chambal Expressway.
