Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Rs 5,000 crore Bhogapuram greenfield airport in Andhra Pradesh, built under a public-private partnership model. He also laid foundation stones for infrastructure projects worth nearly Rs 18,000 crore in the state, signalling a broad investment push for the region.
Railways Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw warned that India's bullet train network will dominate short-haul routes like Mumbai-Pune and Hyderabad-Bengaluru, making air travel on those corridors uncompetitive.
Modi's BJP was set to record major state election wins on Monday, with analysts saying the results could accelerate two flagship agendas: a uniform civil code replacing religion-specific personal laws and expanded infrastructure investment across states.
India's core sector output shrank 0.4% in March, hitting a 19-month low, with crude oil production falling 5.7% year-on-year. Since these eight industries make up roughly 40% of industrial output, the drop is likely to weigh on broader factory output data when it is released.
Railways Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw flagged off India's first direct Jammu-Srinagar train service, completing a high-altitude rail link through the Himalayas. The route gives Kashmir a reliable all-weather connection to the rest of India, lowering freight costs and reducing dependence on landslide-prone roads.
Sudan's civil war, now entering its third year, has caused mass destruction of civilian infrastructure and driven millions into severe poverty. The cumulative damage to hospitals, schools, and supply chains signals a long-term economic and humanitarian crisis that will outlast active fighting.
