Q56 (CISF/2020) Geography › Indian Economic Geography

The East-West Corridor National Highway connects which of the following?

Explanation

The East-West Corridor is a significant part of the North-South-East-West Corridor (NS-EW) project, which is the largest ongoing highway project in India, managed by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). The East-West Corridor connects Silchar in Assam to Porbandar in Gujarat. It spans approximately 3,300 km and traverses through the states of Assam, West Bengal, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Gujarat. In contrast, the North-South Corridor connects Srinagar in Jammu and Kashmir to Kanyakumari in Tamil Nadu. These two major corridors intersect at Jhansi in Uttar Pradesh. The project aims to enhance connectivity and reduce travel time between the eastern and western extremities of the country.
