NEW DELHI: People seeking access roads from National Highways (NHs) for fuel stations, wayside amenities, industries, private properties and rest area complexes won’t need to visit govt offices to get an NOC anymore. They will be able to apply online and get the approval without any physical interface with the system.Road transport minister Nitin Gadkari has launched a new one-stop digital platform — http://rajmargpravesh.morth.gov.in — to process all such applications. The portal can also be used by govt and private entities to obtain permissions for laying utilities such as water pipelines, gas pipelines, optical fibre cables, electrical lines and other services along or across NHs.

Gadkari said the new portal will make the approval process more convenient, transparent and time-bound, helping citizens and businesses save time and effort. Officials said the portal allows fully digital submissions and attachments and automated routing of applications to the authority concerned. “There are specific timelines for initiation, processing and completion of the exercise by the authority concerned. Delays at any stage will be monitored to fix accountability,” an official said.
