Delhi–Mumbai Expressway – Information & Status

1350 km Delhi – Mumbai Expressway (DME) project (NH-148N / NE-4) is an under construction 8 lane access-controlled road with a route connecting DND in Delhi with JNPT in Mumbai. It has been designed with a speed limit of 120 km/hr and provision to expand to 12 lanes in the future.

This new greenfield expressway was approved for construction under the Bharatmala Pariyojana programme in 2017, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid its foundation stone on March 9, 2019.

Total Estimated Cost: Rs. 1,00,000 crore (1 lakh crore)
Project’s Total Length: 1350 km
Lanes: 8 (expandable to 12)
Speed Limit: 120 kmph
Scheduled Opening: January 26, 2023
NHAI’s Deadline: December, 2024
My Completion Estimate: December, 2025
Owner: National Highway Authority of India (NHAI)
Delhi – Vadodara Project Model: EPC (Engineering, Procurement & Construction)
Vadodara – Mumbai Project Model: HAM (Hybrid Annuity Model)
Status: Under Construction (687 km), Bidding & Land Acquisition

The entire expressway has been divided into 4 sections with a total of 52 tenders / packages. Each has a 24 month (2 year deadline).

DND – Faridabad – Ballabhgarh – Sohna: 3 (59 km)
Sohna – Vadodara: 31 (844 km)
Vadodara – Virar: 13 (354 km)
Virar – JNPT: 5 (92 km)

Spurs

The expressway will in the future feature several spurs to improve connectivity. Few of them are:

67 km 4 lane Jaipur Spur from Bandikui (chainage 168.550). Status: Land acquisition started in April 2021. GR Infraprojects received LOA for its construction in March 2022.

Project Overview & Route

The expressway with closed tolling will connect 5 states of Haryana (80 km), Rajasthan (380 km), Madhya Pradesh (370 km), Gujarat (300 km) and Maharashtra (120 km). New industrial townships and Smart Cities have been planned along its route. 92 way side amenities have been planned on either side at an interval of roughly 50 km.

Misri Benefits: 7 Amazing Benefits of Rock Sugar

Misri benefits are remarkable and countless. The sweet rock sugar can do wonders for your health. So stick around as we describe in detail all the amazing benefits of misri for your health!

What is Misri?

Misri or rock sugar is unrefined sugar made from sugar cane juice and sap. The confectionary mineral is popular in India and Pakistan as a natural sweetener and an energy booster.

Hence many people resort to enjoying mishri and fennel seeds or saunf after a meal. It can freshen your breath as well.

You can snack on misri after your meals or anytime you like. It has fascinating benefits on your health as well, which we’ll discuss below.

Misri in English

Misri is known as “rock sugar” in English. It is also referred to as “rock candy.” Mishri, written as مصری in Urdu, is a confectionery mineral that is made from sugar cane and palm tree sap.

Misri Benefits

Following are some of the amazing misri benefits for your health:

1. Energy Booster

One of the incredible benefits of mishri is that it is an excellent source of energy. It is a simple carbohydrate, which the body can quickly break down into glucose.

Thus it serves as a great energy booster if you feel down or exhausted. So the next time you’re feeling lazy, try eating a little misri and see firsthand how it improves your energy levels!

2. Freshens your breath

Misri is ideally taken after a meal. This is because it can act as a terrific mouth freshener. People who face the problem of bad breath should take mishri along with fennel seeds to freshen their mouth.

It can eliminate the sour or bad taste in your mouth, leaving you feeling refreshed.

3. Helps in digestion

Rock sugar can quickly metabolize in the body after its eaten. Therefore it serves as a great way to kick start the digestion process right after having a bite to eat.

Especially people who have a sweet tooth but need to watch their sugar levels can safely enjoy misri after eating. It can keep your stomach healthy by promoting the digestion of food.

4. Natural remedy for sore throat

Misri has superb properties that go beyond just freshening up your breath. It is known to relieve conditions such as common cold, sore throat, and cough.

Make the perfect blend to soothe your sore throat by combining misri and black pepper powder into a paste. You can take this mixture at night before going to bed, and it will naturally relieve your sore throat, cough, and cold.

5. Not too sweet

Misri is a diluted form of sugar with a mild sweetness level. It is also lesser in calories as compared to refined sugar. So if you’re watching your dietary intake substituting refined sugar for misri could be an option. However, consult your nutritionist for the best guidance.

4 grams of misri (1 teaspoon) contains the following nutritional components:

Type	Amount
Calories	25
Protein	0
Carbohydrates	6.5 grams
Sugar	6.5 grams

6. Improves vision

It is believed that consuming misri is good for the eyes. So, if you are someone facing problems like poor vision, cataracts, etc., you should add misri to your diet. The best way to eat it is to mix it in with milk to form a nutritious drink that has the power to boost your vision.

7. Increases hemoglobin levels

It is essential to maintain normal hemoglobin levels to stay healthy and fit. In men, the healthy range for hemoglobin is 13.2 – 16.6 grams per deciliter and 11.6 – 15 grams per deciliter in women.

If hemoglobin levels stray below the normal mark, it could lead to numerous health problems like anemia, weakness, dizziness, and headache. Misri helps boost hemoglobin levels in the body and improve circulation to avoid these health problems.

Are there any potential health risks of eating misri?

Although these amazing misri benefits are difficult to ignore, eating too much of it could be bad for you. At the end of the day, misri is another form of sugar, so you need to be cautious of how much of it you consume.

The American Heart Association recommends the daily limit of no more than 150 calories, equivalent to 9 teaspoons or 36 grams of sugar for most men and no more than 100 calories, which is the equivalent of 6 teaspoons or 24 grams of sugar for women.

Eating too much misri or other forms of refined or unrefined sugar can lead to obesity, diabetes, heart diseases, and other health concerns.
