Gati Shakti Portal

Gati Shakti Portal

·  “GatiShakti Sanchar Portal” is a collaborative institutional mechanism between all stakeholders including Central and State/UT Government(s), Local bodies, and Service Providers to facilitate the Right of Way (RoW) Application Process through a single interface.

·    This portal envisages bringing transparency, accountability and responsiveness to all stakeholders while processing the application.

·     This has further been taking a giant leapfrogging towards “Ease of Doing Business” as the application process for installation of Digital Infrastructure is being delayed due to inconsistency and uncertainty of policy and process and it requires maintaining a fast-tracking application process to overcome the challenges of implementation of Right of Way Rules-2016.

·   This would provide a robust mechanism to achieve our goal of “Broadband to All” as envisaged in the National Digital Communication Policy-2018.

Features

·  GatiShakti Sanchar Portal will enable applicants from Telecom Services Providers (TSPs), Infrastructure Providers (IPs), Internet Services Providers (ISPs) etc. to apply for RoW approvals for laying Optical Fiber Cables (OFC) and erecting Telecom infrastructures like Towers etc. to submit their applications to various agencies of State/UT Governments and local bodies.

·     The GatiShakti Sanchar Portal is also integrated with the Ministry of Railways, Ministry of Road, Transport & Highways, and Ministry of Defense (DGMO and DGDE). Shortly, it will be integrated with the Ministry of Environment, Forest, and Climate Change.

·   For effective monitoring the dashboard of the portal gives pendency status – overall, State wise and district-wise.
