GatiShakti Public lets users access 230 datasets across ministries. It transforms infrastructure data from a government silo into a shared national resource
For decades, fragmented planning caused delays and cost overruns. GatiShakti’s integrated data approach promises better coordination and efficiency
Open access can help investors and researchers identify last-mile gaps and design better projects, improving logistics and lowering infrastructure costs
The RBI estimates that each rupee spent on infrastructure adds 2.5–3.5 to GDP. Coordinated, data-led planning could unlock major productivity gains
Sensitive data will stay restricted, but the platform needs strict governance to ensure accuracy, accountability, and protection from misuse
If maintained well, GatiShakti Public can attract private investment, improve efficiency, and turn open data into a driver of inclusive development
