NHAI to Take Over Panipat Elevated Expressway After 2027
What happened
The concession period for the 10-km Panipat elevated corridor on National Highway-44 has been extended by the National Highways Authority of India. The original concession period ended in January 2026, but the authority granted an extension of about a year. The concessionaire will hand over the project, including the toll plaza, to the National Highways Authority of India in January 2027.

Why it matters
The handover to the National Highways Authority of India fulfills a demand from city residents for relief from toll payments. This shift means the elevated corridor will become toll-free after the extended period ends.
