The Dwarka highway, built to decongest NH-48 between Delhi and Gurugram, cost 14 times more than the approved amount.

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.
