Answer: 16

Historically, infrastructure projects in India suffered from severe delays because ministries worked in silos (e.g., a road being dug up immediately after completion to lay optical fiber cables). Gati Shakti integrates the spatial data and plans of 16 key ministries (including Railways, Roadways, Petroleum, and Telecom) onto a single GIS-based digital platform, ensuring synchronized, multi-modal infrastructure development.
