Four Lane Greenfield Amritsar Connectivity Project Delhi-Amritsar-Katra Expressway latest news: Four Lane Greenfield Amritsar Connectivity Project: Ceigall India Limited has announced that the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has terminated its contract for the construction of a four-lane Greenfield Amritsar connectivity project.
The project, undertaken in a joint venture with Ms Krishna Constructions, aimed to enhance connectivity between Amritsar and the Delhi-Amritsar-Katra Expressway.
The termination follows a notification from NHAI, referencing letter No. NHAI/PIU/ASK/DAK/PKg-1/File-207962, dated 25 February 2025. The decision to terminate was based on Clause 3.4 of the Contract Agreement, citing insufficient land acquisition for the project’s designated stretch.

The project, with a total bid cost of ₹1,071 crores, was part of an ongoing infrastructure development initiative under the EPC model (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction).
