The Setu Bharatam Programme is a government initiative in India aimed at building bridges for safe and seamless travel on national highways. It focuses on constructing bridges on national highways that are considered to be critical and require immediate attention.

Option 1, which suggests building bridges across major rivers for the transport of goods, is not the correct answer. Though bridges are indeed important for transporting goods, the Setu Bharatam Programme specifically targets national highways.

Option 3 suggests building roads to connect coastal areas, which is not the objective of the Setu Bharatam Programme. The focus of this initiative is solely on constructing bridges for national highways.

Option 4, which mentions the training of highway engineers, is not directly related to the Setu Bharatam Programme. While the program may indirectly involve the expertise of highway engineers, its primary aim is to build bridges rather than train engineers.

In conclusion, option 2 correctly states that the Setu Bharatam Programme is focused on building bridges for safe and seamless travel on national highways.
