— Rajnath Singh (@rajnathsingh) May 27, 2026Why does Gadkari seem variegated from other ministers?
Gadkari, born on 27 May 1957 in Nagpur, has been holding the Road Ministry continuously since 2014. Three terms, same ministry. This is a record. Officers say that they do not like hanging files. Set targets, set deadlines, and succeed them. Because of this style, plane the opponents respect him.
Why does Gadkari's name come up in towers roads?
Look at the last 10 years. Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, Samriddhi Mahamarg, Chardham All-Weather Road. The speed of highway construction has increased increasingly than 2 times. But Gadkari is not just laying concrete. He talks well-nigh electric vehicles, ethanol, hydrogen, reducing the forfeit of logistics, everything. It was moreover his idea to connect toll to GPS.
That's why people say, "If there is Gadkari, the road is built." And the messages received on his birthday tell us that he has built roads not only on land but moreover in the hearts of people.
