This revelation has been made in an analysis by the Comptroller and Auditor General, as per an NDTV report.

The highway was constructed under the Narendra Modi government's Bharatmala Pariyojana.

The expressway was built at a "very high" cost of ₹250.77 crore per kilometre, even as the cost approved by the Modi government was ₹18.20 crore.
