Minister for Road Transport & Highways and the Minister of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, Nitin Gadkari has approved five massive infrastructure projects for Andhra Pradesh.

"Union minister Shri @nitin_gadkari ji approved 6 Lane Kantakapalle-Sabbavaram section of NH-130-CD worth Rs. 824.29 Cr Raipur-Visakhapatnam Economics Corridor in the state of Andhra Pradesh," Nitin Gadkari's office tweeted.
